The prerequisites for using Jabra headset controls, such as answer, hang up and mute, in Communication Panel

Prerequisites

To use Jabra headsets for call handling:

  • Use Google Chrome browser with Windows or Mac operating system.

  • Download and install Jabra Chrome-host v.2.1.0 from Jabra Browser Integration >Downloads.

  • Obtain Jabra Browser Integration Extension v.2.3.0 from Chrome Web Store or Jabra Browser Integration >Downloads.

  • Install Jabra Direct software on the workstation from Jabra website.

    This is not mandatory for the integration but we recommend to obtain the latest firmware for the device.

  • Choose Jabra as the audio device in Communication Panel > User Menu > Settings > Audio Settings > Brands.

    Make sure the other prerequisites have been completed before selecting the brand in Communication Panel. If the listed prerequisites haven't been completed, you should select the option Other Brand. Otherwise the integration may not work as expected.

Jabra Direct

The Jabra Direct software informs you when the integration is correctly set up. After you have installed prerequisites, set Jabra as the audio device. You should see Google Chrome browser as enabled in Jabra Direct.

Jabra Engage+

The Jabra Engage+ software is an application for agent desktop to analyze conversation content, such as mute time and overlapping talk. For supported headset models and details, see Jabra.com.

Sinch Contact Pro development has tested the software and found the integration with Communication Panel to be working when Jabra Engage+ is installed.
