About Proximity
The Proximity feature is switched Off
by default, because the DX products
are often deployed in open offices with
several devices close to each other. In
such environments, pairing could be
unstable. In general, Proximity should
be switched On only on one device per
room.
When Proximity is switched On, the video
conferencing device transmits ultrasound
pairing messages.
The ultrasound pairing messages are
received by nearby devices with Proximity
clients, and triggers the authentication
and authorization of the device.
Provided that you have verified that
Proximity is suitable in your environment,
Cisco recommends - for the best user
experience - that Proximity always is
switched On.
In order to get full access to Proximity,
the Proximity services (Proximity >
Services > ...) must be Enabled as well.
