CTS-SX20-PHD4X-K9 Cisco Quick-Set TelePresence Package w/ 4x zoom HD Camera

Cisco CTS-SX20-PHD4X-K9 - TelePresence SX20 Quick Set with 4× PrecisionHD Camera

The CTS-SX20-PHD4X-K9 combines the powerful Cisco TelePresence SX20 codec with a 4× PrecisionHD optically-zooming camera in one package. Designed to turn a flat-panel display into a high-definition video conferencing system, it supports full-HD (1080p) video, dual displays, and an optional embedded multipoint bridge.

🔧 Key Specifications

• Maximum video resolution: Up to 1920 × 1080 @ 60 fps.

• Codec bandwidth: H.323 / SIP up to 6 Mbps.

• Video inputs: 1× HDMI and 1× DVI-I (analog + digital) supporting up to 1080p60. (Cisco)

• Video outputs: Dual HDMI supporting 1080p60 / 1080p50 etc.

• Camera: PrecisionHD 4× optical zoom with support for mounting (incl. upside-down automatic flip).

• Network & protocols: IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack, QoS, H.239 (H.323), BFCP (SIP) dual stream.

🧩 Ideal Use Cases

• Mid-sized meeting rooms where a 4× optical zoom camera is sufficient to cover room participants and presenter.

• Organizations seeking a telepresence system with dual-display capability: one screen for video participants, another for shared content.

• Environments where a bundled all-in-one solution is preferred (codec + camera + mic + remote control) for simplified deployment.

• Use-cases where future multipoint expansion may be needed (via upgrade) to add 3-way conferencing without additional external MCU hardware.

⚙️ Licensing & Expansion Notes

• Although the system supports embedded multipoint, the multipoint capability is an optional upgrade (license) on the SX20 platform.

• Ensure camera and codec firmware are matched; the 4× camera variant has a specific compliance/model number as referenced in the datasheet.
