Chapter 3 Installation and Configuration 
3-2 CallConnector Operator 
 
CallConnector Operator Installation Overview 
 
The CallConnector Operator can be deployed in two modes: 
 
Standalone: In this configuration, all the software for controlling the phone and accessing the 
contact data are installed and run on the attendant’s personal computer. There is no dependency 
on external software components. There is an installation program (CallConnector Operator – 
Standalone) for this mode that checks the system configuration, copies the software to the hard 
disk, and provides the tools to make the required configuration settings. 
 
Server-based: In the server-client mode, the controlling software is installed and run on a server 
computer to be accessed by the CallConnector Operator application. Each CallConnector 
Operator is installed on a separate computer and obtains the configuration data and contact 
information from the server. There is an installation program (CallConnector Operator client) to 
install the CallConnector client on the operators’ PC. The instruction for installing the 
CallConnector Server is available from the Server Administrator’s Guide. This chapter will discuss 
only the installation process for the CallConnector Operator Standalone and CallConnector 
Operator Client programs. 
 
The installation of the CallConnector Operator client or standalone mode involves the following 
steps: 
 
•  Collecting the information required for installing and configuring the CallConnector 
Operator. This includes obtaining the access rights to the download site for the 
installation program as well as the information that required during the installation 
process. See the Pre-requisites for Installation section below for these parameters. 
 
•  Configuring the Cisco Router for the features required by the operator – including the 
operator’s phone, the routing of calls to the operator phone and also setting up the Telnet 
access to allow the configuration program to setup the attendant. See the Router 
Configuration Required for the CallConnector Operator section below. 
 
•  Acquiring the CallConnector Operator installation program. This can be downloaded from 
the Cisco Software Download Site or obtained from your Cisco channel partner. 
 
•  Running the CallConnector Operator client or standalone installation on your personal 
computer, and entering the configuration information requested by the installation and 
configuration wizards. 
 
•  Registering the CallConnector Operator license by entering the PAK-ID or Serial Number 
during the activation process. 
 
•  Setting up the CallConnector Operator configuration parameters. 
 
•  Verifying that you are able to receive and make calls from CallConnector Operator user 
interfaces and able to access your contact data.
