Features and Benefits
Ease of Installation
The Cisco MCS 7816-I4 Unified Communications Manager Appliance is an entry-level appliance platform used for Cisco Unified Communications Solutions. An integral part of a complete, scalable architecture for a new generation of high-quality IP voice solutions that run on enterprise data networks, the Cisco MCS 7816-I4 is an easily deployed, cost-effective solution. At only 1 rack unit (1RU) high, the Cisco MCS 7816-I4 offers tremendous power in a low-profile chassis that minimizes rack space.
DAT Tape Drive Support
The Cisco MCS 7816-I4 can support a 36/72-GB universal-serial-bus (USB) external Digital Audio Tape (DAT) drive (part number DAT-USB-EXT-72=) or an optional 36/72-GB USB rack-mount DAT drive (part number DAT-USB-RM-72=).
