Required CTI Middleware Client API Software

The following CTI middlewares require installing client API software. Use the installation guidelines that apply to the middleware in use.

Envox CT Connect

Copy the Envox CT Connect Java client file ctcapi.jar into the directory admin/scripts/3rdparty of the Interaction Center Server Manager node that hosts Oracle Telephony Adapter Server.

Aspect Contact Server

Copy the file ABObject.jar into the directory admin/scripts/3rdparty of the Interaction Center Server Manager node that hosts Oracle Telephony Adapter Server.

Genesys Interaction Connector

Installation and Dependency Verification

Installation and Dependency Verification is a functional checklist that indicates tasks to perform to ensure that mandatory dependencies are installed, implemented and set up correctly.

Because the proper implementation of Oracle Telephony Manager is dependent on the proper versions and installation of third-party customer-provided equipment for requisite CTI functionality, check the following considerations prior to beginning the implementation:

If the PBX and CTI middleware combination in use is not certified by Oracle, then you may be able to integrate the combination by using the Oracle Telephony Adapter SDK. The SDK requires building a custom adapter. See Oracle Telephony Adapter SDK Developer's Reference Guide.
