2651XM Router

Have purchase this for Voice work ( hasnt any cards in it at present )
has 64kb of Main mem and 32kb of flash
what IOS do I need to get to use CME ?
my IOS at present is C2600xm-is-mz-122.12a.bin

Im assuming I will need another IOS and will then be able to use CME
and then need PVDMs and VIC cards for analogue to digital stuff i.e FXS

Thanks in advance for any help

The IOS you need is dependent on the version of CME you want to run.

Check out the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express Compatibility Information web page.

The Cisco Unified CME and Cisco IOS Software Version Compatibility Matrix shows you the IOS Version and the supported CME Version.

If you dig through the "Supported Firmware, Platforms, Memory, and Voice Products" documents, you'll find that the last version of CME the 265xXM supported was 4.1

The 265xXM doesn't have any slots for PVDMs or VWICs, so it depends on the modules you install.

You can find some hardware links in the CCVP FAQ

If you go to Portable Product Sheets - Partner Central the NM/WIC/VWIC Compatibility PDF and the Voice Density PDF should give you an idea of what the 265xXM supports.

NM-1V and NM-2V moudules have DSP resources built in to run the FXO and FXS VICs.

For packetized voice, say T1/E1 PRI, you would need something like the NM-HD-2VE + a multiflex card like the VWIC-xMFT-T1. I'm sure you can use other "NM-HD" variations but you'll have to do some research.
