1861 is expensive. Best deals can be probably had for 2801s. The embedded switch really doesn't add much for study purposes.

Hello,

I have my CUCME 7x running on a 2801 router, with an AIM-CUE daughtercard for voicemail. I have a 3560 switch with PoE, and you can use any phone that the system supports. In my lab I have a couple of 7931's, some 7961's, and 7942's. It works like a charm.

Hope that helped, if so please rate.

just spoke to someone saying an 1861 coz it has a builtin switchports of 8, fxs etc..but not so sure whether it will give me the equivalent experience by having the real lab like what you have suggested.
