HDCP support

Cisco DX600 Series phones support Digital Rights Management (DRM) protected content. For example, your phone plays video that is purchased from the Google Play Store.

To prevent unauthorized copying of HD video using the HDMI port, an HDMI monitor (or any HDMI sink device) that is connected to the phone must be HDCP compliant.

HDCP is used to encrypt the data between your phone and the HDMI monitor. If the HDMI monitor is not HDCP compliant, your phone will not play protected content.

This table summarizes when DRM content can be played.

Display mode	HDCP supported monitor
No external monitor	DRM content can be played
Dual independent display	DRM content can be played

Virtual desktop infrastructure

For users who adopt Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Cisco DX600 Series phones support third-party virtual desktop clients from leading third-party vendors:

•Citrix

•VMware

•Wyse

Desktop virtualization technologies may offer a degraded level of performance when you access audio, video, and interactive multimedia resources remotely. Unlike other desktop virtualization endpoints, your phone features a local voice and video media plane, that enables your phone to connect to media traffic through the device itself and outside of the remote desktop display protocol. For example, two Cisco DX600 Series phone users in the same branch can call each other by using Cisco Unified Personal Communicator that is running on their remote virtual desktop. While the control (signaling) plane resides in the data center, the audio and video connection between the users never leaves the branch. The branch network applies packet prioritization to the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) flow, and the two phones connect directly to each other without
