Cisco Desk Pro G2 CS-DESKP-C-K9-- – Customized Model, Carbon Black

Product Overview

Cisco uses the -- suffix to identify a customized model, and the CS-DESKP-C-K9-- is that ordering form of the Carbon Black Desk Pro G2. It appears on purchase orders where a customer has agreed a special configuration with Cisco rather than taking the catalogue build, typically on large or long-running deployments. The endpoint itself is the current Desk Pro G2: a 27-inch 4K touch display, a dual-lens 48MP telelens and 14.5MP wide-angle camera, an eight-element beamforming microphone array and an internal two-port Ethernet switch. Cisco lists no end-of-sale notice for the platform, so a customized standard remains orderable.

Product Description

A customized-model part number is an ordering construct, not a different device class, and it should be treated that way in a design document. The published Desk Pro G2 specification is what the room has to be built around; anything specific to the customized configuration comes from the agreement that created the SKU, so confirm the configuration content with the supplier before assuming it differs from a standard unit.

For the AV and IT teams doing the install, the constraints are the ordinary Desk Pro G2 constraints. One RJ-45 drop serves the endpoint and a co-located PC through the internal 10/100/1000BASE-T switch, power is external at 62 W typical in call through CS-PWR-CUBE-7= rather than PoE, and CS-DESKP-VESA-C= is the mount kit where an arm or wall position replaces the supplied desk stand.

Registration options are unchanged: Webex, Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom for Cisco Rooms, H.323, SIP and WebRTC, with native Unified CM 14 or later or Expressway for on-premises estates, all on RoomOS 26 or later. Organisations building a desktop standard alongside meeting-room hardware can compare the matching room systems in the video conference systems and collaboration and presentation ranges of the Cisco collaboration portfolio.

Key Features

• Customized model designation — Cisco describes -- part numbers as a Customized Model, an ordering form used where a specific configuration has been agreed rather than the catalogue build.
• Dual-lens camera system — A 48MP 70-degree telelens and a 14.5MP 105-degree wide-angle lens with phase detection autofocus, 2x optical and 5x digital zoom cover both a single seated user and a group of up to five.
• 27-inch 4K touch panel — The 3840 x 2160 display at 350 cd/m2 with 2000:1 contrast and 98% DCI-P3 coverage is specified to serve as the user's day-to-day monitor as well as the meeting screen.
• USB-C docking with 80 W charging — A single USB-C cable provides 4K60 display extension, touch forwarding, camera and audio passthrough to any software client and up to 80 W of laptop charging.
• Two-port Ethernet switch — The internal 10/100/1000BASE-T switch shares one structured cabling drop between the endpoint and a co-located PC, so a replacement unit slots into the existing desk cabling unchanged.
• Platform compatibility — Cisco lists Webex, Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom for Cisco Rooms, H.323, SIP, WebRTC and BYOM over USB-C passthrough for the Desk Pro G2.
• Directional audio and beamforming array — Left, centre and right channels with balanced dual woofers from 45 Hz, and an eight-element beamforming microphone array with AI-powered noise removal.
• Current product generation — Cisco publishes no end-of-sale or end-of-life notice for the Desk Pro G2, so units ordered now match units ordered earlier in the programme.

Typical Applications

• Commercial meeting space — large deployments where a customer-specific configuration is repeated across many desks.
• Executive workspace — leadership positions covered by the same agreed build as the wider estate.
• Huddle room — small rooms included in a customized rollout under one part number.
• Multi-purpose room — flexible spaces standardised on the same configuration as desk positions.
