Vegas casino networked slot machines with Cisco Ethernet

If you’re wondering whether you have too much Cisco in your shop take a look at Cannery Casino & Hotel  in North Las Vegas, which has implemented Cisco gear from top to bottom – right down to networking all its slot machines using Cisco Virtual Switching System (VSS). Cisco reseller DSW has posted up a video of its project to kit out the casino with Cisco Physical Security, Cisco Unified Communications, and other Cisco security and wireless technologies. The video  is pretty marketing-heavy but you’ll get a feel of how Cisco equipment is being used at the casino.

If slot machines can be nodes on a network I’d be interested to hear out about other ‘unusual’ nodes in customer installations.
