What percentage of Cisco gear that supports a CALEA lawful intercept mode is

AFAIK, it must be explicitly enabled in order to be functional.  It isn't the 
sort of thing which is enabled by default, nor can it be enabled without making 
explicit configuration changes.



Also, the way that things are integrated it's usually an explicit decision to pull a piece of functionality in rather than inheriting it. Product managers don't willingly want to waste time pulling things in that a) don't make them money, and b) require support. So I doubt very seriously that CALEA functionality is accidentally included into inappropriate things. Doubly so because of the performance
implications.
