JABRA SUITE FOR MAC OVERVIEW
Note: This installation guide refers to Jabra Suite for Mac version 1.30.3 or above.
ELEMENTS OF THE JABRA SUITE FOR MAC
Jabra Suite for Mac is free Mac software that enables remote call control (answer/end calls)
of Jabra USB devices with the latest generation of Mac softphones.
The Jabra Suite for Mac includes call control integration modules (also referred to as
softphone drivers) for various softphones on the market. A softphone call control integration
module establishes a link between a softphone and the Jabra headset, so you can answer
and end, mute and un-mute, hold and resume calls using the buttons on your headset. The
call control functions available from your headset depend on the capabilities of the
softphone and the Jabra headset model.
Currently these softphones are supported by Jabra Suite for Mac:
 Avaya one-X Communicator
The Jabra call control integration module for Avaya one-X Communicator manages
the connection between your headset solution and an Avaya one-X Communicator
softphone client.
 IBM Sametime
The Jabra call control integration module for IBM Sametime manages the connection
between your headset solution and a IBM Sametime client. The Java plug-in for IBM
Sametime softphone integration is automatically installed during the installation of
Jabra Suite for Mac if the Softphone client is already installed. If the plug-in is not
installed you might have to install it manually.
Refer to the Jabra Suite for Mac online help for instructions on how to install the
Sametime plug-in.
 Skype
The Jabra call control integration module for Skype manages the connection
between your headset solution and a Skype client. After installing Jabra Suite for
Mac you need to open Skype and allow the Jabra Skype call control integration
module to access Skype. See the section “Post Installation Steps” later in this
document for instructions on how to do this.
