Computer Telephony Integration (CTI)
Computer Telephony Integrative (CTI) refers to the ability to use data available from caller entered data, 
ACD, IVR or other data sources, to pop to the agent, to use to make routing decisions, or to use as a key 
to perform a data lookup (for example, via a database access prior to popping to the agent or to use in 
making routing decisions). CTI may also imply the ability to invoke a third-party application and to pass 
data to that application as part of the agent screen pop.
 describes the CTI features that are available in each Cisco Unified CCX Package.

Advanced IVR Port Remote Silent Monitoring. 
Provides a mechanism for silent monitoring of 
calls using an IP phone or a PSTN phone. This 
form of silent monitoring does not require a CSD 
application to be running but does require a seat 
license for any supervisor engaged in remote silent 
monitoring. Remote silent monitoring also does 
not require any data network connectivity and is 
ideally suited for management of outsourced 
customers of a call center service provider. The 
agent is unaware when being monitored using 
remote silent monitoring.
