In reply to Marcelo Almeida De Morais.

Hi Marcelo. Thank you for your question. The 8845 and 8865 support HD video, higher resolution widescreen displays, mobile device telephony feature integration with Cisco Intelligent Proximity and include a superior audio experience to our prior generation IP Phones - all at comparable or less price vs. the 8900 and 9900 Series SD video endpoints. As such, Cisco would recommend that any customer that can take advantage of this latest generation of IP Phones absolutely do so – whether new installations or migration/upgrade opportunities. For price/performance/value – 8800 Series video phones are certainly in their best interest.

That noted, the 8945 of the 8900 Series and the 9951 and 9971 in the 9900 Series remain available for order. They are not End of Sale upon introduction of the 8845 and 8865. This is because, as standard process for any endpoint Cisco introduces, there are country compliance and US Federal Government requirements that extend beyond initial general availability of the endpoint. These certification timelines are controlled by these entities. For further details on the countries implicated and/or US Federal Government certification testing, you are encouraged to consult your Cisco account representative for assistance.
