The Contact Center Enterprise (CCE) Solution Compatibility Matrix includes all the Cisco CCE solutions and component compatibility information. This compatibility matrix specifies all supported configurations and versions for Release 12.6(x). The information in this compatibility matrix supersedes compatibility information in any other CCE documentation. If the Compatibility Matrix does not state a configuration or version, then it does not support it.

Notes
-
The phone models that are end-of-sale and end-of-software-maintenance will continue to work with Contact Center Enterprise solutions. The phone models that are end-of-support are still compatible with Contact Center Enterprise solutions, but they are neither tested nor supported by Cisco.
-
For end-of-life and end-of-sale announcements, see https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/eos-eol-listing.html.
-
For information on a specific endpoint, see the product page of the endpoint.
-
-
General: Only the Cisco IP Phones listed in the preceding table are supported as contact center agent phones. As an alternative, you can deploy the Mobile Agent solution to enable the contact center to use any phone as an agent phone.
-
General: The Join Across Line (JAL) and Direct Transfer Across Line (DTAL) phone features aren’t supported, and must be disabled on phones that come packaged with these features and local CTI ports (LCP) for Mobile Agent.
-
General: For any phone that allows Single-Line Mode, you can use Shared Line on a non-ACD line. You must have your PG in Single-Line Mode (set the Agent Phone Line Control setting to Single Line).
-
General: Other than call initiation, all other call control on the non-ACD extensions is supported from multiline capable desktops. Calls initiated from the hard phone can be controlled after initial call setup.
-
78xx: If Cisco Finesse IPPA agents use 78xx series phone, you must either disable the Cisco Finesse IPPA Inactivity Timeout feature or increase the timeout in the range of 120 seconds to one day (86400 seconds), so that the agent doesn’t get logged out of Cisco Finesse IPPA even if the agent is on any other screen.
-
88xx phones are supported only with desktop controls in the Standard Line mode. If both desktop and device controls are required, use the Enhanced Line mode.
-
Webex:
-
Point-to-Point calls are supported if the lines are registered with CUCM or via SIP URI.
-
For minimum supported versions of CUCM and Expressway (for MRA deployments) to support Webex, see the Supported Unified CM Releases and the Supported Expressway Releases tables at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/cloudCollaboration/wbxt/ucmcalling/unified-cm-wbx-teams-deployment-guide/unified-cm-wbx-teams-deployment-guide_chapter_011.html
-
-
Jabber:
-
Agent Greeting support for Jabber requires minimum Cisco Jabber version 12.9.
-
MRA support for Jabber requires minimum Cisco Jabber version 12.5 and Expressway 12.5. If you have VPN split-tunneling configured, you can use Jabber with MRA and the Finesse desktop on the same client machine. See https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/security/anyconnect-secure-mobility-client/products-installation-and-configuration-guides-list.html for Cisco AnyConnect Mobility Client split-tunneling configuration.
-
If VPN split-tunneling isn’t available, use one of the following options for the remote agents:
-
A remote agent who runs Jabber with MRA on one client machine and the Finesse desktop with a VPN connection on a second client machine.
-
A remote agent who runs a Jabber softphone on a laptop that is connected over MRA and runs the Finesse desktop as a Xenapp thin client on the same laptop.
-
-
Jabber for VDI isn’t supported in Video Contact Center deployments.
-
Jabber Multiline feature is supported from CCE 11.6.
-
For Cisco Jabber software compatibility details, see the Planning guide for Cisco Jabber at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/unified-communications/jabber-windows/products-installation-guides-list.html.
-
-
The phone models that are on end-of-life plan and have reached the end of maintenance for CUCM Release 14 will no longer register. For more information on the end-of-life phones, see the Field Notices at https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/unified-communications/unified-communications-manager-callmanager/products-field-notices-list.html.
Endpoints Supported for Callers Only
Callers outside of the enterprise's network can use the following endpoints:
-
Jabber for iOS
-
Jabber for Android
Single Sign On (SSO) Identity Providers (IdPs)
The following AD FS versions are supported with this Unified CCE release:
-
AD FS 5.0: Windows Server 2019
-
AD FS 4.0: Windows Server 2016
-
AD FS 3.0: Windows Server 2012 R2
Besides the AD FS versions listed above, Unified CCE supports all SAML 2.0 compliant IdPs.
See the documentation of your IdP for details on configuring the IdP in CCE.
Notes
-
CCMP and Cisco Unified Contact Center Domain Manager (CCDM), Release 12.6 support Microsoft AD FS 2012 R2 and 2016 with WS-Federation via JSON Web Token (JWT).
However, user authentication access for CCMP and CCDM can be provided by one of the supported IdPs via Federated Trust with Microsoft AD FS. Federated Trust is supported per Microsoft AD FS and third-party IdP documentation and support.
-
Kerberos is supported for single-domain authentication (non-federated environments).
-
For ECE:
-
Agent-based users have the same compatibility as Cisco IDS.
-
Supervisors outside Cisco Finesse support any SAML 2.0 complaint IDP.
-
Transport Layer Security
The Unified CCE database access encrypts SQL user authentication using TLS, but the data connection isn’t encrypted.

Notes
-
CTI OS is only supported for Unified ICM when used in conjunction with Avaya PG, Aspect PG, AACC (Symposium) PG, or non-reference design deployments like Parent-Child that employ Unified CCE System PG. The supported CTI OS version is aligned with the supported PG version.
-
CTI OS and CAD are not supported from Unified CCE, Release 11.5(x). New and existing deployments upgrading to Unified CCE release 12.0(1) or later must use Finesse desktop instead of CTI OS and CAD.
-
Silent Monitoring Service is not supported on CTI OS deployments starting with Unified CCE release 11.5(1).

Unified ICM/CCE is qualified only on a retail installation of the Microsoft Windows Server (Standard and Datacenter editions). Cisco doesn't support Unified ICM/CCE on a customized Microsoft Windows image (for example, a corporate image). If you use a customized image of the Microsoft Windows operating system, the Unified ICM/CCE application can fail.
-
ECE 12.6 is supported only on Windows Server 2019 (Standard and Datacenter). For Windows Server 2016 support across the deployment, continue to use ECE 12.5 with CCE 12.6.

Avaya Considerations
-
Avaya changed names from DEFINITY to MultiVantage to Avaya Communications Manager (ACM) to Avaya Aura Communications Manager (AACM).
-
Packaged CCE 12.6 versions support Avaya Peripheral Gateways for AACM in the 4000 and 12000 Agent deployments only.
-
Real-Time Agent (RTA) 5.0.5 and 6.0 enhanced functionality (60 skills per agent and 2000 skill groups per system) are not supported by ICM.
-
ICM does not support more than 12000 active associations on a single system.
-
All Call Management System (CMS) versions are supported as long as a supported RTA is used.
-
Cisco supports the Avaya S8300, S8400, S85XX, S87XX, and S88XX Servers in support of ACM.
-
Cisco supports the general use of Avaya IP Phones.
-
Although Avaya stopped supporting the CVLAN interface in 2012, Unified CCE still uses this interface to communicate with Avaya products. Note that 12.6(1) is the last supported release in the 12.6 release train for the CVLAN interface.
-
Avaya Multi-Application Platform for DEFINITY (MAPD) is not supported.
-
Support for third-party ACD clients, SDKs, and interfaces integrated with ICM stops when the third-party ACD manufacturer ends mainstream support.
-
Ten-digit Agent extensions and Agent IDs are supported from ICM 9.0(3) and later that have ACM 6.2 and later, AES 6.2 and later, and CMS R16 with RTA 6.0 pl: 13g.

Notes on AES Server and CVLAN/TSAPI Client Support
ICM/Packaged CCE 12.6 supports all CVLAN Client and TSAPI Client versions currently supported by Avaya.
![]() Note |
Support for an ACM or AES version depends on the Avaya release cycles (patches and upgrades). For more details on supported versions, refer Avaya documentation. 12.6(1) is the last supported release in the 12.6 release train for the Unified ICM PG integration with Avaya Communications Manager using the ECS PIM / CVLAN interface PG. For more information, refer to the CVLAN to TSAPI Migration chapter in the Cisco Unified ICM ACD Supplement for Avaya Communication Manager, Release 12.6(1). |
