Cisco MX 700

[informaticien9]

Hello,

We have implemented Cisco MX 700 for video conferencing in our meeting room.

and I have two main questions:

1- there are 2 USB port and 1 headjack, for what stands exactly?

2- how can we connect the Cisco Camera to the laptop directly using Skype for business.

     is there any extra cable to use for this purpose?

Thanks in advance

Best regards

Hello,

The picture you uploaded is for touch 10 not for codec.

Also for MX700, you can not use it as USB camera. I think only webex room kit mini has that option as per release notes.

Thanks.

Please rate if it is helpful...

Anurag is correct on both counts - the ports on the Touch 10 are not usable for normal operations. You could use it to charge your phone but that's about it. 

As he mentioned only the Room Kit Mini can be used as a camera for a laptop, no other Cisco video systems offer this functionality. If you have S4B and want to call into those meetings or clients from a room system, your best option would be to deploy Cisco Meeting Server - you can configure it as a gateway, or for dual homed conferences.
