Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI
Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI (JVDI) is the Unified Communications solution offered by Cisco for virtual deployments. It
supports audio conferencing, and instant messaging on the Hosted Virtual Desktops (HVD). The Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI
software offloads the audio processing from the virtual desktop servers to the thin client. All audio and video signals are routed
directly between the endpoints without entering the HVD.
Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI enables you to make and receive calls using the Cisco Unified Communications application.
Cisco Jabber Softphone for VDI consists of the following two components:
Cisco JVDI Agent
Cisco JVDI Client
Cisco JVDI Agent is the JVDI connector that runs on the VDI desktop or server. Cisco JVDI client is the JVDI package that
runs on the thin client. The Jabber client that runs on the Citrix server handles the authentication and the media processing is
achieved on the thin client.
