Introduction to TNUX-1.2.1.SBN
The TNUX-1.2.1.SBN is a critical supplemental software bundle for Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM) 14.x environments, specifically optimized for telepresence and video collaboration systems. This digitally signed package (“.SBN” extension) delivers firmware updates, device drivers, and configuration templates required for advanced video codec interoperability. Designed under Cisco’s Multi-Platform Telepresence Architecture, it resolves synchronization issues between CUCM clusters and third-party H.323/SIP endpoints in hybrid deployments.
Released on March 15, 2025, version 1.2.1 focuses on enhancing 4K/UHD video streaming stability across distributed networks. It supports CUCM versions 14.SU2 and later, with backward compatibility for legacy TelePresence System EX/MX series.
