isco Systems engaged Miercom to examine and review the

Cisco Unified Communications 500 Series for Small

Business. Targeted at small offices of fifty users or less, it is

a full featured IP-based phone system designed for rapid

deployment and simplified management.

Miercom evaluated the Cisco Unified Communications 520-16, the

sixteen user model consisting of the Cisco Unified Communications

520-8 base unit and Cisco Catalyst Express 520, which

demonstrated all of the features expected in a platform targeted at

small office and several more usually reserved for higher end

PBXs. Contained in a single appliance, the Cisco Unified 500

series boasts a full infrastructure in a box. This configuration and

packaging simplifies installation while still providing the back end

components required to ensure a high quality voice and data

network. When further combined with the Cisco Monitor Manager,

Value Added Resellers (VARs) are able to extend their service

offerings to include remote management and administration. The

Cisco Monitor Director allows VARs to multiply that service offering

across up to fifty clients simultaneously.
