Data Transport & Encrypted
Communications
The data connection from the sender is encrypted and can only be decrypted by an authorized
AirMedia device. In conjunction with wireless access point security, AirMedia content cannot be
secretly eavesdropped by non-authorized parties. Correct operation of the security protocols is
contingent on leaving the correct ports open for the AirMedia device at the network switch as
shown in
Device Configuration (on the next page)
.
The AirMedia receiver within the AirMedia Series 3, AM-200, AM-300, CCS-UC-1, and
CCS-UC-1-X devices supports third party certificates for encrypting connections between the
AirMedia sender applications for Windows and Android devices and the receiver.
The use of third party certificates for encrypting connections can be enabled and disabled in the
configuration of the product.
Please refer to the product's manual for instructions on how to load a certificate onto the
device. If no certificate exists, the system will default to using a self-signed certificate.
