Overview

Overview

The Cisco Smart+Connected Controller 200 provides intelligent control for the Cisco Smart+Connected
Residential Solution, allowing residents to manage lighting, security, temperature, and multimedia,
while also providing a portal into the community from the residence. The Cisco Controller 200 integrates
a broad range of devices using a variety of protocols (Internet Protocol [IP], ZigBee HA, infrared [IR],
serial, and more). By combining wired and wireless technologies, the Cisco Controller 200 provides
flexibility in extending the capabilities of the Cisco Smart+Connected Residential Solution to any device
located anywhere in the residence. All of these services can be controlled through simple and intuitive
touchscreen displays or on-screen TV navigators managed through one of the Cisco Smart+Connected
Universal Remotes.

While individual Cisco Controllers can support a single room or small residence, additional Cisco
Controllers can be added to provide on-screen TV navigation in other rooms. Cisco Controllers can also
be added in groups to provide coordinated control throughout a large residence or building. These
compact devices are easy to mount behind a TV or on a wall, so that residents can enjoy the power of
on-screen control virtually anywhere.

Features and Benefits

Cisco Controller 200 can be used as an auxiliary Cisco Controller to support on-screen TV navigation
in additional rooms, to offload processing tasks, or to act as a ZigBee Access Point (ZAP).

Mounting the Cisco Controller 200 on a Wall

The Cisco Controller 200 can be mounted on a wall or placed on a horizontal surface (such as a shelf).

Procedure

To mount the device on a wall:

Step 1 Select one of the following mounting options:

• Mount the Controller 200 horizontally using one (1) standard single-gang wall box. The wall

mounting plate has four (4) horizontal sets of slots. Leave the screws protruding .08” from the wall.

• Mount the Controller 200 horizontally or vertically using one (1) standard double-gang box. Leave

the screws protruding .08” from the wall.

• Mount the Cisco Controller 200 horizontally or vertically using four (4) screws (not provided)

placed directly into a wall stud or studs.

–

Using the mounting plate as a template, screw four (4) screws into a stud to align with the four
(4) center slots for vertical positioning; or into two (2) studs to align with the four (4) corner
slots for horizontal positioning.

–

Leave the screws protruding .08” from the wall.

Note To quickly check the fit of the screws, place the wall mounting plate over the screws before

attaching it to the bottom of the Controller 200.
