basis or after all Polycom CX700 phones have been upgraded from release

Step 3.1 - Prepare Software Update Files
There are three basic steps to this process:

2. Upload the CAB files to the pool and uncompress them further to CPE
files
3. Approve the CPE files.
To prepare the software update files:
1. Download the Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007
3.5.6907.9 Polycom CX700 phone software release (UCUpdates.exe) here
and store it on a Pool Front End server (for example,
c:\UCUpdates\
6907.9 ).
2. Open a CMD window, change to the directory where you downloaded
the 3.5.6907.9 version of UCUpdates and run the ucupdates.exe file.
Extract the CAB file to a directory (for example, use the same directory
that ucupdates.exe is in).
3. From the Pool Front End server, click Start, Administrative Tools, Office
Communications Server R2.
4. Right-click on the Pool and click Device Updater. Select Tools, Upload
.cab File.
5. Navigate to the directory where you extracted the CAB file (for example,
c:\UCUpdates\6907.9), click on UCUpdates and click Open.
This will extract the 3 CPE.* files from the CAB file and make them
available for Approval / Rollback.
