About this task
You can add a DVD or Blu-ray player to the Avaya Room System XT Series to share its content
during a videoconference by connecting it to either the vertical camera port or the DVI port
on the XT Codec Unit (see Figure 38: Connecting a DVD player or digital-analog converter on
page 72).
On the Avaya XT7000 Series only, you have the option of connecting to one of two vertical HDMI
ports. If your HDMI 2 port is available (located under ), we recommend using this port and
keeping the DVI port available for a computer connection.

You can also add an analog camera or other analog video equipment, such as legacy composite
video or component video media devices, by connecting it to an analog-digital converter which, in
turn, is connected to the same camera or DVI ports on the XT Codec Unit (see
Figure 38:
Connecting a DVD player or digital-analog converter on page 72). For information on the
converters tested with the XT Series, see Third-Party Accessories for Avaya Room System XT
Series. These type of media devices include VCR players, DVD players, and cameras.
The XT Series supports digital content protection. If the XT Codec Unit detects that non-compliant
devices are attached to one of the HD CAM inputs, the video is locked and a special image with a
lock is displayed in place of the protected content.
• You can only view digitally protected content on a device that supports High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection (HDCP).
• You cannot view digitally protected content on a device that copies HDCP content.
• You cannot send digitally protected content to non-HDCP devices.
