Cisco Room Panorama
The Cisco Room Panorama system is designed to make your video
conferencing room more versatile and flexible also for local meetings.
The Cisco Room Panorama is built on the Cisco
Room Kit Pro technology platform, with the Codec
Pro and the Quad Camera as core.
It has two 85-inch 8K video screens, and a 65-
inch 4K screen for content presentation.
The camera provides panorama video, speaker-
tracking, and auto-framing capabilities.
The integrated loudspeaker system consists
of twelve main loudspeakers and four bass
loudspeakers, driven by a sixteen channel
amplifier.
We recommend using the Cisco Table Microphone
Pro / Cisco Microphone Array external digital
microphones. The system supports up to six
of them, and three are shipped as default. As
an alternative, you may use up to eight analog
microphones or a full external DSP controlled
microphone solution.
In addition, integrated microphones are part of the
state of the art speaker tracking solution.
The cosmetic wall panels shown here are available
as an option.

Before you start the installation
It is important that you read our Room Preparation
Guidelines before you start the installation. They
are available online.
During the installation you need both the
Installation Guide (this guide) and the Wiring
Diagram. The wiring diagram is shipped with the
product.
We recommend you to check if there are newer
versions of the Installation Guide and Wiring
Diagram online. You find the version number on
the last page (format: 78-xxxxxx-yyyy, where
yyyy is the version number or Dxxxxx.yy, where
yy is the version number).
Download information
You can download the room preparation
guidelines, wiring diagram, and installation
instructions from:
https://www.cisco.com/go/panorama-installation
This webpage contains installation guides for all
products in the Cisco Room Series. Look for Cisco
Room Panorama. *
Installation by instructed personnel
Due to the size and mass of the Room Panorama
system, it must be installed according to our
installation instructions by qualified personnel. The
installer must determine whether the wall must be
reinforced prior to the installation and calculate
the number and type of screws required for a safe
wall mounting.
The product is fastened to the wall
The Room Panorama is fastened to the wall with
three horizontal rails. These rails must be fastened
so that they can safely support the product. In
total, the product weighs close to 600 kg (1320 lb).
When installed correctly, the system rests on the
floor.
Perfectly flat wall
The rails must be level. If the wall is not perfectly
flat, horizontally and vertically, this must be
compensated for before you mount the rails.
The system has adjustable feet, which can
compensate for the floor not being perfectly flat.
Power
Room Panorama consists of separately approved
components. This requires each component to
be connected directly to a wall socket outlet
that is installed by a qualified electrician. You
are not allowed to use a power strip (multi-socket
extension cord).
Since each component has a power cord
connected directly to a wall socket outlet, there
is no total electrical rating (voltage, current, and
frequency) for the Room Panorama system. You
should check the rating label on each component.
Cosmetic wall
Part 1 of this guide explains how to install the
Room Panorama with the optional cosmetic wall
panels offered by us.
As an alternative to these cosmetic wall panels,
you can integrate the Room Panorama system
fully in the room by making your own custom wall
integration. This is described in Part 2.
* A new main screen model for Room Panorama was introduced in 2023. The new model is 85 inches; the original model was 82 inches. Room Panorama has the same functionality regardless of main
screen model. However, since there are a few installation and cabling differences between them, there are two sets of installation instructions and wiring diagrams online.

Packaging
You have received four or five pallets with parts
and components, depending on whether you have
ordered the optional cosmetic wall.
The pallets are marked with A, B, C, D, and E.
During installation, you need parts from pallet A
first.
This installation guide is on pallet A, the wiring
diagram and other information from us are on
pallet C.
Wall structure pallet Cavities pallet
Component pallet Display pallet
Cosmetic wall pallet
(optional)
Boxes and labels
There are several boxes with parts on each pallet.
The boxes are marked with a letter followed by
a number. The letter identifies the pallet. For
example A1, A2, A3, ... for the boxes on pallet A.
In general, you need box A1 before box A2, and
so on. But you don't always need all the parts
contained in a box or pallet with a lower number
before you need parts from the next.
The installation guide refers to these labels to
show where the required parts for each step are.

Risk of personal injury
There is a potential hazard risk tied
to the gas springs in the screen
mount modules when installing or
dismantling the system. There is
no risk involved when following the
Install Guide step by step, but if
caution is not taken regarding the
screen mount safety brackets, there
is a chance of personal injury.
To help lifting the screen with the
screen mount module, the gas
springs store a lot of energy. If the
screen mount safety brackets are
moved out of the Safe Mode position
before the screen is mounted, the
screen mount module can shoot out
at high speed, potentially causing
harm. The same goes if one tries to
remove or dismantle the gas springs
from the product.
To avoid the risk of personal injury:
• Do not disassemble any of the
pre-assembled parts of a display
cavity at any time.
• Do not move the screen mount
safety brackets out of the
Safe Mode position (transport
position) before the main screens
are mounted (refer to step 24.7).

center partleft part right part
Minimum ceiling height: 2.70 m (106.3in.)
The Room Panorama system is mounted on three
rails - top, middle, and bottom. The rails are
fastened to the wall.
The rails must be level, and accurately centered
about the system’s vertical center line. If the wall
is not perfectly flat, horizontally and vertically, this
must be compensated for before you mount the
rails.
Use a laser level to make sure the horizontal rails
are placed perfectly. This is important for the rest
of the installation process to go smooth.
Fasten the rails with the number and type of
screws that are required for a safe mounting
of the system on your type of wall. Any of the
horizontal slots in the rails can be used.
