TVs. Therefore, the recommendation is to use the IP Phone in luxury suites with 9 or less TVs.
IR Remote
When using an IR remote for local TV control, keep the following in mind:
• Can control only a single TV.
• Requires line-of-sight access to the DMP’s infrared (IR) receiver.
• Requires Cisco StadiumVision Alternate Device Services license.
Cisco IP Phone
When using a Cisco IP Phone for local TV control, keep the following in mind:
• Recommended option for luxury suites. However, if the venue uses a non-Cisco VoIP solution in
the luxury suites, use a third-party touch panel for local control.
• Can control up to 29 TVs, but recommendation is to limit to 9. Greater than 9 TVs will require
the user to navigate through multiple pages to locate the desired TV.
• If the phone is used in a suite with more than 9 TVs consider splitting the suite into 2 or more
control areas, using a separate phone for each area.
• Only the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975 can be used as a local TV control device.
• Requires Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CUCM).
• Requires Cisco StadiumVision Video Management Services license.
• Although the designated area, such as a luxury suite, can contain multiple Cisco IP Phones, only
one can be used for local TV control.
Only the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7975 option allows both the Video Management Services and
Commerce Services (which enables ordering of food and merchandise) to be run on a single device.
Therefore, it is the recommended option for luxury suites.
