Cisco C40

The Cisco C40 is a light integration codec that provides excellent function for medium sized conference rooms.

The C40 is suitable for use in equipment racks that require an element of audiovisual integration. With 5 audio inputs and 3 audio outputs, this system can accommodate two XLR microphones and other audio input (such as from a mixer, a PC or a telephone hybrid). In addition to its audio inputs and outputs, the C40 also includes 4 distinct video inputs and 2 outputs [Inputs include a mix of HDMI, DVI-I, Composite / Outputs include a mix of HDMI, DVI-I]. This codec is made to provide solid function and a light level of integration support.
