Cisco Unified Mobile Agent
Last revised on: May 06, 2010
Cisco Unified Mobile Agent was introduced in Cisco Unified CCE Release 7.1. It enables an agent using 
any PSTN phone and a broadband VPN connection (for agent desktop communications) to function just 
like a Unified CCE agent sitting in a formal call center and using a Cisco IP Phone monitored and 
controlled by Cisco Unified Communications Manager (Unified CM) JTAPI.

Cisco Unified Mobile Agent Architecture
Cisco Unified Mobile Agent uses a pair of CTI ports that function as proxies for the mobile agent phone 
(or endpoint) and the caller phone (or endpoint).   Two CTI ports (local and remote) are required for 
every logged-in mobile agent, and the two CTI ports take the place of the Cisco IP Phone monitored and 
controlled by Unified CM JTAPI. The local CTI port DN is used by the agent at login and is where 
callers are routed when this agent is selected. The remote CTI port calls the agent either at login for a 
nailed connection or upon being selected for a call-by-call connection. Then, via media redirection, the 
CTI ports signal for the two VoIP endpoints to stream RTP packets directly, with no further involvement 
from the CTI ports until further call control (transfer, conference, hold, retrieve, or release) is required.
