At bit of an off-topic response, as I can't answer the direct question 
regarding the 7960 phones, but I run the NEC Dterms for my VoIP, and have 
always used a VPN for client to system communications- one, you've got the 
full ip stream, and secondly (and most importanly) you've got encrypted 
traffic.  Ofir Arkin has done lots of research into the vulnerabilites 
present in systems like this, and having the traffic in the clear between 
client and server is not recommended.

I was worried about latency within the VPN, but have been doing it for a 
couple of years now with no issues.
