Connecting Multiple HDMI Devices or Cameras via the Avaya
®
Scopia XT Camera Switch
About this task
You can connect a second PTZ camera to your XT Series, for large room setups. All XT Series
models can connect the extra camera directly to the DVI port. However, the XT7000 Series and
XT5000 Series can also connect it via the Avaya Scopia
separately. Using the switch enables multiple HDMI connections and keeps the DVI port available
for a computer or DVD player to share content. For example, you may want to zoom one camera to
focus on the speaker, and use another camera for the audience.
On the XT7000 Series only, you can connect a second camera to an extra HDMI port on the XT
Codec Unit, without using the Avaya Scopia
Camera Switch when connecting more than two cameras to the XT7000 Series.
With the Avaya Scopia
devices, like a DVD or other media player.
Connected cameras can be controlled from an XT7000 Series or XT5000 Series endpoint.
