Supported Devices
TAPI 170 supports the same devices as the OpenScape Business CSTA interface.
These are described in the chapter on the CSTA Protocol.
TAPI 170 Connections
The OpenScape Business TAPI 170 software is installed on a Microsoft Windows server on the
network. The connection to OpenScape Business occurs via a CSTA link. A physical connection
between the Windows PC and the phone is not required.
OpenScape Business TAPI 170 can be set up in different operating modes on standalone
systems or in the OpenScape Business network.
Connecting Server-based TAPI Applications to OpenScape Business using TAPI 170
The server applications and the TAPI 170 software are installed on the so-called "Telephony
Server" in the network. The server applications provide their associated clients in the network with
telephony features for stations that are configured within OpenScape Business TAPI 170. The
TAPI 170 software is connected to the CSTA interface of OpenScape Business over the LAN.
For this connection, one CSTA link of OpenScape Business as well as one TAPI license for each
configured TAPI station are required.
