Cisco TelePresence SX80 Administrator Guide
This chapter provides an overview of the new and changed
system settings, and the new features and improvements
in the Cisco Collaboration Endpoint software version 8.0
(CE8.0) compared to TC7.3.
As CE software is based on TC7, the structure and main
functionalilty remains the same as in TC software.
For more details, we recommend reading the Software
release notes:
► http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/collaboration-
endpoints/telepresence-quick-set-series/tsd-products-
support-series-home.html
CE8.0 upgrade path
It is important to consider the upgrade requirements
of CE8.0 before upgrading; otherwise upgrading
to CE8.0 can leave you with a non-functioning
deployment that requires you to downgrade.
Refer to the software release notes, and the
► Upgrade the system software chapter.
New features and improvements
Products
CE8.0 supports the following products:
• MX200 G2
• MX300 G2
• MX700
• MX800
• SX10 Quick Set
• SX20 Quick Set
• SX80
Cisco TelePresence products in EX Series, C Series,
and Profile Series are not supported in CE software; use
software version TC7.3 or earlier for these products.
User interfaces
Products running CE software, must use the following
user interfaces:
• Touch 10 controller, available for all products.
• TRC6 remote control, available for SX10 and SX20.
Touch 8 controller and remote control TRC5 are not
supported.
API changes
The number of API commands has been reduced.
Some commands are removed, and others are different
syntactically in order to cater for underlying architectural
changes.
More status information and configurations are available
on the video system’s web interface than in the API.
Refer to the What’s New chapter in the API guide for the
video system, to see the changes that are made to the
public API.
Intelligent Proximity for content sharing
Cisco Proximity allows you to automatically pair your
device (smartphone, tablet, or laptop) with the video
system when the device comes within range. This
feature is disabled by default.
Cisco Proximity offers three services: Content sharing
to clients, content sharing from clients and basic call
contol. These services are disabled by default.
The Cisco Proximity clients for smartphones
and tablets (Android and iOS), and laptops
(Windows and OS X) can be downloaded from
► http://proximity.cisco.com. Clients for smartphones
and tablets are also available through Google Play
(Android) and Apple App Store (iOS).
Multistream
The Multistream feature enables the video system to
send and receive multiple streams of video in different
resolutions simultaneously. The video systems compose
layouts locally, to better adapt the layout to all available
screens.
While in a conference with multiple participants, this
feature enhances the user experience in terms of
layout control. A multi-screen system is able to utilize
all screens when participating in a Multistream enabled
conference, and the layout is improved when presenting
and sharing content on all systems.
In this release Multistream is switched Off by default.
We recommend the Cisco UCM 11.0.0 and later,
and the latest versions of TelePresence Server and
TelePresenceConductor for optimal experience.

Cisco TelePresence SX80 Administrator Guide
Microphone LED behaviour
The LED behavior on microphones and Touch 10 has
changed. The microphone LED glows and the mute button
is active in the following scenarios:
• When initiating an outgoing call and until the call is
disconnected.
• When receiving an incoming call and until the call is
disconnected.
• When activating the VU meter on the web interface to
test the audio levels.
The color indications, green for active and red for muted,
have not changed.
Resolution changes
Collaboration Endpoint Software only supports displays
that support 16:9 or 16:10 resolutions.
Supports WUXGA (1920× 1200) presentation sharing both
locally and in a call.
Remote monitoring
For increased security, it is only possible to take
snapshots of the local and far end video streams from the
video system’s web interface, when a Remote Monitoring
option key is installed on the video system.
Remote monitoring is enabled once the option key is
added, and the video system is rebooted.
No warning messages or indicators are sent to the users
of the video system. Please provide adequate notice to
the users that the system administrator may monitor and
control the camera and screen.
Removed features
• MultiWay is no longer supported. CUCM ad hoc
conferencing or hosted conferences may be used
instead.
• Cisco CTMS is no longer supported. Other multipoint
conferencing solutions (involving Cisco TelePresence
Server, Cisco TelePresence MCU, and/or Cisco
TelePresence Conductor) may be used instead.
• Custom video layouts and video composition using TC
Console is not supported.
• MediaNet is no longer supported.

SX80 at a glance
The Cisco TelePresence SX80 codec provides a powerful
and flexible platform for creating video collaboration
experiences. SX80 was built with the integrator in mind,
enabling flexibility and creativity for customized video
collaboration rooms. SX80 acts as the audio and video
engine to incorporate high-definition video collaboration
applications into large meeting rooms, boardrooms and
purpose-built or vertical application rooms.
SX80 delivers up to a 1080p60 end-to-end high definition
(HD) video and offers industry-first support for H.265 (in SIP
calls). The codec offers a rich input and output set, flexible
media engine, and support for three screens enable various
use cases.
Cisco offers SX80 as a single unit, and in the following
integrator packages:
• SX80 and Precision 40 (PrecisionHD 1080p4xS2) camera
for smaller room scenarios
• SX80 and Precision 60 camera, for lager room scenarios
with premium image quality
• SX80 and SpeakerTrack 60 dual camera system, which
features a direct, fast switching approach for active
speaker tracking
SX80 also has basic support for the PrecisionHD 1080p12x
camera (camera software upgrade not supported natively by
codec, Daisy chaining not supported).

Cisco TelePresence SX80 Administrator Guide
In general, we recommend you to use the web interface
to administer and maintain the video system, as
described in this administrator guide.
Alternatively, you can access the API of the video
system by other methods:
• HTTP or HTTPS (also used by the web interface)
• SSH
• Telnet
• Serial interface (RS-232)
If you want more information about the different access
methods, and how to use the API, refer to the API guide
for the video system.
Tip
If the configuration or status is available in the API, the
web interface setting or status translates into an API
configuration or status as follows:
Set X>Y>Zto Value (web)
is the same as
xConfiguration X Y Z: Value (API)
Check X > Y > Z status (web)
is the same as
xStatus X Y Z (API)
For example:
Set SystemUnit > Name to MySystem
is the same as
xConfiguration SystemUnit Name: MySystem
Check SystemUnit > Software > Version status
is the same as
xStatus SystemUnit Software Version
More settings and status are available in the web
interface than in the API.
How to administer the video system
Access method Notes How to enable/disable the methods
HTTP/HTTPS • Used by the web interface of the video system
• Nonsecure (HTTP) or secure (HTTPS)
communication
• HTTP: Enabled by default
HTTPS: Enabled by default
NetworkServices > HTTP > Mode
Restart the video system for changes
to take effect
Telnet • Nonsecure TCP/IP connection
• Disabled by default
NetworkServices > Telnet > Mode
You do not need to restart the video
system. It may take some time for
changes to take effect
SSH • Secure TCP/IP connection
• Enabled by default
NetworkServices > SSH > Mode
You do not need to restart the video
system. It may take some time for
changes to take effect
Serial interface (RS-232) • Connect to the video system with a cable. IP-
address, DNS, or a network is not required
• Enabled by default
• We recommend using the default baud rate,
because the video system may return much
feedback (SerialPort > BaudRate)
• For security reasons, you are asked to sign in by
default (SerialPort > LoginRequired)
SerialPort > Mode
Restart the video system for changes
to take effect
If all access methods are disabled (set to Off), you can no longer configure the video system. You are not able to reenable
(set to On) any of the access methods, and you must factory reset the video system to recover.

new users and change most settings. The
user cannot upload audit certificates and
change the security audit settings.
USER: A user with this role can make
calls and search the contact lists. The
user can modify a few settings, for
example adjust the ringtone volume and
set the time and date format.
AUDIT: A user with this role can change
the security audit settings and upload
audit certificates.
