The RS-232 connection is the most obvious example of a TV input where the
standards are loose. Connector, pin outs and control codes all vary from one TV
model to the next. HDMI is another area where interoperability cannot always be
assumed.

Cisco’s Sports and Entertainment Solutions Group (SESG) makes an effort to test
the DMP with a variety of TV makes and models. However, there is a large variety
of makes and models on the market, and each model is on the market for a
relatively short period of time before it is replaced with a newer, better, and cheaper
model. Due to this rapid refresh rate it is not practical to test Cisco StadiumVision
with every TV model on the market. Therefore, a recommended best practice is to
include TV qualification as a standard task in the planning phase of every Cisco
StadiumVision project plan.

This testing should occur as early as possible in the project timeline, as the testing
may uncover a need for special cabling and/or adapters, or reveal issues with the
TV or DMP firmware that needs to be addressed. Early identification allows the
issue to be addressed before DMP and TV deployment starts.

This document outlines a test process that can be followed by the Cisco delivery
team or partner doing the actual deployment. The process is designed so that it can
be performed independently of the venue deployment schedule. The equipment
used for testing is minimal and mobile, allowing the testing to be done at either the
TV supplier or at the partner’s office.
