Initial Environment Setup
The Cisco Virtualization Experience Client (VXC) 
2111 and 2211 are workstation-class virtualization 
clients for use with PC-over-IP® (PCoIP®). The 
PCoIP protocol is designed to deliver a user 
desktop from a centralized host server across 
standard IP networks, enabling you to use 
applications and desktop peripherals as if you were 
using them locally.
This guide will help you to set up the Cisco VXC 
2111/2211 and establish a remote connection to 
your PCoIP host server. To use the client, you must 
first have a properly installed PCoIP environment. 
Before you install the client, read all Caution 
Statements.

Install the Cisco VXC 2211
The Cisco VXC 2211 clients are standalone units. 
Unlike the Cisco VXC 2111, they are not mounted 
to any Cisco Unified IP Phone.
Perform the following steps to install the Cisco 
VXC 2211. 
Step 1
Use DVI-I cables to connect the monitors 
to the DVI-I outputs. For VGA monitors, 
use VGA-to-DVI-I adapters. For a single 
monitor, use the bottom DVI-I output. 
Step 2
Connect the keyboard and mouse to the 
USB ports on the back of the client.

Step 3
If your system administrator has provided 
you a Cisco Power Cube 4, connect it to 
the client. Otherwise, power may be 
provided via Power over Ethernet. If no 
power is available at bootup, check with 
your system administrator. 
Step 4
Connect the network cable into the 
Ethernet port on the back of the unit. 
Step 5
To turn on the client, press the power 
button for one half second. When the unit 
powers up, a white light at the base of the 
unit turns on. (To power off the unit, press 
the same button and hold for 3 seconds or 
longer). After the display initially appears, 
it may go blank for a short time (20 
seconds) and then redisplay. 
Step 6
To sign in, see your system administrator.

9971.

Perform the following steps to connect the Cisco 
VXC 2111 to a Cisco Unified IP Phone 8961 or 
9971. 
Step 1
On the phone, disconnect the power cable 
(if applicable) and the network cable. 
Step 2
On the back of the phone, remove the 
footstand: hold the phone by the top with 
one hand, and with the other hand, push 
the footstand firmly to disconnect it. If any 
remaining wires (such as a headset) go 
through the footstand, disconnect the 
wires, remove the footstand, and 
reconnect the wires to the phone.
