with the MAC address.
1 Important Concepts
Cisco Digital Media Player 4300G (DMP) is a
compact, addressable network appliance that
delivers digital signage content to a display that
you attach. The display can be analog or digital
and can be standard-definition or high-definition.
DMP is one part of the Cisco Digital Media System
(DMS), which combines many Cisco products.
Digital signage consists of any combination of
messages or other kinds of information that people
can see or hear, and that a DMP delivers to people.
The content might relate to commerce, popular
entertainment, staff training, emergency
awareness, combinations of those things, or nearly
anything. The people who manage a DMP (or who
manage multiple DMPs in a digital signage
network) decide what to show or say, and when,
and to whom.
Step 1 Plug one end of an ordinary Ethernet cable
into the Ethernet 10/100 port on the back
of the DMP chassis.
QUICK START
Step 2 Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable
into a network hub, network switch, or
router that participates in a DHCP
network.
Note
The physical location where you set up a
DMP must be within 6 feet of a 120V AC
electrical outlet (socket) and within 6 feet
of the DMP display.
To learn more about DMS products and features,
Cisco Digital Media Player Device Manager
(DMPDM) is a web-based graphical user interface
to configure one DMP device during its initial
setup or to manage one DMP device in isolation.
DMPDM is served from the DMP that it manages.
4 Connect to DMP Display
You can use an analog or a digital display, but must
use the provided composite/RCA cable. (You must
always use the composite/RCA cable for audio,
even if you later use HDMI for video.)

Other important concepts
Cisco Application and Content Networking
System (ACNS) interoperates with DMM-DS to
greatly reduce redundant digital media traffic over
satellite and terrestrial networks. ACNS offers a
comprehensive set of streaming media features to
deliver high-quality and long-playing digital videos
live and simultaneously to thousands of users and
DMPs, or on demand at a later time.
If anything is missing from the package or appears
to be defective, contact the technical support team
trained to support DMS products at:
Step 2 Connect the other end of the
composite/RCA cable to your
DMP display.
Step 3 If the DMP display is not already turned
on, turn it on now.
3 Connect to DHCP Server

Interface (DMM-Admin) is a web-based graphical
user interface to install or upgrade the software
licenses that enable you to use DMM-DS.
DMM-Admin is served from a Cisco Media
Convergence Server.
The factory default for a DMP 4300G is to obtain
its IP address automatically from a DHCP server.
