DMP 4310G Hardware
Each TV in a StadiumVision venue is connected to a Cisco DMP. The Cisco DMP is
a highly reliable IP-based hardware endpoint for video decoding and playback of
digital media content, including high-definition live broadcasts or on-demand video,
flash animations, text tickers, and other Web content-across digital signs. It provides
the interface between the local control devices, StadiumVision Director, the IP
network, and the TV.

television displays and also provides administrative functions such as turning
televisions on and off to save power.
Each DMP is individually addressable for targeted ads and other content, combining
HD video and signage. Using Cisco StadiumVision Director, the centralized
management system component of the StadiumVision solution, you can flexibly and
remotely publish centralized content to networked digital displays. You can attach
the Cisco DMP to virtually any on-premises digital TV at any location across the
venue such as a concourse, club, luxury suite, or back office.

• Remote management of digital TVs.
• Full-screen, ad wrapped, and overlay video via multicast channel feeds.
• Advertising playlists, display signage, and ticker information throughout the
event.
• Power over Ethernet, eliminating the need for an additional power outlet and
simplifying deployment.
For historical reasons two versions of the DMP 4310 exist. One shipped as a Cisco
StadiumVision-specific variant with part number DMP-4310G-SE-K9, but is no
longer orderable. The other is generic with part number DMP-4310G-52-K9, and
this is now the only variant that is orderable. The hardware for the two is identical.

The firmware loaded at the factory is different for the two 4310 variants. The DMP-
4310G-52-K9 ships with the DMS 5.2.x firmware, while the DMP-4310G-SE-K9
shipped with Cisco StadiumVision-specific SE2.y.z firmware. Both hardware
variants are able to run both flavors of firmware.
