functions.
Using Other Types of Softphones and Audio Programs
Even if you use a softphone that is not mentioned above, then you will still be
able to use your headset together with your software. In this case, your headset
will work just like a passive PC plug-and-play sound card with sound-in and
sound-out features. This is probably how your softphone documentation describes
the expected operating environment in its documentation.
There are two possible exceptions that may enable headset-based control of your
softphone:
• If your softphone operates the headset using the USB human interface device
standard, as Microsoft Office Communicator does, then your softphone may
support the same types of features described above for Office Communicator.
• Jabra is constantly evaluating the softphone market to see which new programs
should be supported with a dedicated driver, as described above for Skype and
Cisco. Contact your Jabra representative or see the Jabra web site for the latest
news on softphone driver development.
