As Mangus mentions, the Precision 60 camera isn't supported. However, if you simply want video via HDMI it will work, but camera control will not work as the SX20 uses a proprietary VISCA cable and the P60 camera uses ethernet.

While the Precision 60 camera will not work, you can use the PrecisionHD 12x Camera (CTS-PHD1080P12XS2=) which is quite similar in specifications.

At this moment you can buy only SX20 (CTS-SX20-K9) unit without any cameras. Recommended cameras is EOS.

So it's not understable for what purposes selling SX20 unit if it doesnt support cameras like P60? Is it so difficult  for Cisco add feature for control new cameras via Ethernet?

Hi

P60 camera does not work with the SX20

An option could be take a look and contact these guys or Sony SRG-120DH.

It's funny)). As you think Sony give me the same discount as Cisco))?
But the main question was - why Cisco sell standalone unit if there no cameras fo work with it? And my opinion in this situation that it will be right and logical to add support IP control for use current Cisco cameras.

Probably because they have lots of stock of the SX20 endpoints still available, but not many of the cameras.   The SX20 was one of their best sellers - I heard figures of over 120,000 of them sold worldwide over their long life span.  

In addition to the Sony cameras, there are vaddio cameras that will also work directly with the SX20.
