Webex codec pro multiple cameras

[benjamin.bruetting]

Hello, 

since  Endpoint software version 9.12 the webex codec pro supports more then 3 cameras.

Is this a  software only based feature so i can update my codec (before 04/2020) or is this a hardware based feature?

Thanks for your help

You can add 3 cameras but for camera control you need to bring a switch in between.  AFAIK its not software based.

2.12.0.0

Thanks for your reply,

thanks for the infomation with the switch

but there is one more question

in the administration guide 

codec-pro-administrator-guide-ce95.pdf (cisco.com) is on page 45 mentioned that only three cameras are supported

and in the 

codec-pro-administrator-guide-ce912.pdf (cisco.com) is on page 68 mentioned that cameras can be conected to HDMI Port 1-5

and in the camera guide Cisco Quad Camera, Precision 60, SpeakerTrack 60, PTZ-12, and PTZ 4K Camera Guide on page 31 is mentioned that up to 7 cameras are supplied. 

so im a little bit confused. can i update my system from Collaboration Endpoint software version 9.5 to the Collaboration Endpoint software version 9.12 or higher to get the support of 7 cameras or do i  need a new codec.

I know if it is hardware based I need a new codec

Thank's for your help and greetings
