This range of ports represents the total possible range. The actual range will be determined by CUCM, and will be much narrower.

44442 HTTP The client listens for events from Cisco Unified Client Services Framework.

Routing access control lists for Cisco Jabber

You must configure switching and routing access control lists (ACLs) so that Cisco Jabber can communicate with servers and endpoints that might be connected to the VLAN that carries voice traffic. Using ACLs permits Cisco Jabber to connect to each server through the appropriate protocol. For example, you can allow UDP traffic in the port range that Cisco Unified Personal Communicator uses for RTP, and then label it with the appropriate Quality of Service (QoS) actions.

For more information about ACLs, how to configure the voice VLAN, and how to configure QoS actions, see the switching and routing documentation for your network products.

Network Address Translation and Cisco Jabber

Cisco Jabber is not compatible with Network Address Translation (NAT); it cannot use Simple Traversal of UDP through NAT (STUN), Traversal using NAT (TURN), or any other NAT-traversal scheme.

Cisco Jabber must be running through a VPN connection to traverse NAT.

  • Voyager 510-USB Bluetooth

*Jabra PRO and Jabra GO devices are touchscreen devices that can connect with multiple devices at same time. If you are using a Jabra PRO or Jabra GO wireless device with Cisco Jabber for Mac, you must configure the device as follows:

  1. Plug the supplied USB cable into the port marked on the base of the Jabra device.
  2. Connect the USB cable to any available USB port on the Mac.
  3. Tap the tool icon on the touchscreen to open the settings menu, and tap Phone Settings > Connect Softphone (PC). Select None (audio only) in the setup wizard.
  4. Touch X to reboot.
  5. Launch Cisco Jabber for Mac and set the Jabra device as speaker and microphone in the audio configuration.

**Plantronics Voyager Legend devices can experience one-way audio during a Cisco Jabber for Mac call. To work around this issue, users can turn off the sensor on the headset. For instructions, see the headset documentation.


Note


All headsets were tested for audio sending and receiving only. Function buttons on particular headsets might not function correctly with Cisco Jabber. For additional call control functionality, you may need to install Plantronics or Jabra software. While Cisco does perform basic testing of third-party headsets and handsets for use with Cisco Jabber, it is ultimately the responsibility of the customer to test this equipment in their own environment to determine suitable performance.

Notes on audio quality in Cisco Jabber

Cisco Jabber is designed to provide premium voice quality under a variety of conditions; however, in some instances users may notice interruptions of transmission or temporary distortions (“artifacts”), which are considered a normal part of the application operation.

These artifacts should be infrequent and temporary when you use the following:

Cisco takes reasonable measures to design products that interact with the operating system in ways that decrease interference with audio quality when you use your computer as a phone. However, the shared nature of system resources is different from a closed environment like Cisco IP Phones, and Cisco cannot guarantee equivalent performance.

The following conditions may cause artifacts:

  • Spike in usage of the personal computer CPU—where CPU utilization is between 75 and 100%—due to launching applications, system processes, or processing within other applications
  • The system is running low on available physical memory
  • Other applications using large amounts of bandwidth to or from the workstation to the network
  • Other network-bandwidth impairments
  • Dynamic reduction in CPU clock speed due to power management policy (for example, laptops running on battery power) or thermal protection causing the CPU to run in a more highly loaded condition
  • Any other condition that causes the application to lose timely access to the network or audio system; for example, interference from third-party software

Limitations and Restrictions

Important notes and known issues for Cisco Jabber

General limitations

  • Connectivity - You should sign-out/sign-in after each network switching, sleep/resume, or hibernation event. Reliability after disconnect/reconnect conditions is under development
  • Video Calls - On rare occasions, video calls will crash after repeated calls or hold/resume
  • Presence - Presence in the call/voicemail history and participant roster is not reliable
  • Contact Photos - Contact photos intermittently do not display properly
  • Contact Management - When creating or moving multiple contacts and groups at the same time, not all users or groups update correctly; however, moving contacts one at a time works fine.
  • Predictive Search - Predictive search for contacts in the Mac Address Book does not work when you search on First Name/Last Name combinations
