Features and Benefits 

● 

Business-class IP telephony and video brought to your mobile device: Powered by the market-leading 

Cisco

® 

Unified Communications Manager call-control solution, the Cisco Jabber solution provides 

enterprise-grade telephony with high-fidelity audio and standards-based video capabilities. These features 

mean that high-quality and high-availability voice and video telephony is available when you need it, 

whether you are in the office or mobile. You can also hand off calls to your mobile provider's network as you 

leave Wi-Fi coverage or move Cisco Jabber calls to your Cisco Unified IP Phone to continue a conversation 

on a different phone. 

● 

Secure firewall-traversal technology that enables unbounded mobile use cases: Cisco Expressway for 

Mobile and Remote Access enables you to easily access your Jabber

®

 collaboration services outside the 

corporate network, so you can be more productive when you are mobile. In contrast to VPN, it secures only 

Jabber traffic, helping ensure that your personal data does not cross the corporate network. 

● 

Lower mobility costs: Cisco Jabber for Android allows you to place and receive calls over your corporate 

wireless LAN (WLAN) and telephony infrastructure. With Cisco Jabber for Android, you can place and 

receive calls when at home, in hotels, or at Wi-Fi hotspots. For Android phone and tablet users, that means 

reducing the number of mobile minutes used and saving on roaming charges. Because the Cisco Jabber 

application uses your Cisco Unified Communications Manager call-routing capabilities, you may be able to 

avoid long-distance charges for international calls. You can reduce these costs further by using the optional 

Dial-Via-Office feature. 

● 

Mobile privacy: Cisco Jabber for Android turns your Android phone and tablet into an extension on Cisco 

Unified Communications Manager. You appear to receive and make calls from your work phone number 

when using the Cisco Jabber application. Executive Android phone and tablet users benefit from this feature 

because they often want to keep their mobile number private when placing calls.
