The CTA 100 is an easily installed TAPI connectivity device that provides TAPI connectivity via an RS-232 serial port. It also supports Norstar ACCESS applications.
The CTA 100 connects the 7000 series Norstar telephone to a Windows PC via a RS-232 serial port. This setup provides D-channel connectivity, which is required to support a wide selection of TAPI applications such as Personal Call Manager, Symposium, Symposium Partners and Business Affiliates solutions. It is a physical hardware device, located at a specific desktop, where a Windows-based PC is linked to a Norstar set or at a Windows NT server. The CTA 100 is recommended for any CTI user who wants call control and support of industry standard TAPI applications.

Norstar Computer Telephony Adapter (CTA) devices bridge the gap between phone systems and computers and are based on the Telephony Application Programming Interface (TAPI) standard developed by Microsoft, to work with a wide variety of CTI applications. Norstar offers several CTA options for basic, advanced or integrated desktop CTI. The Norstar Computer Telephony Adapter can be used in a configuration where the CTA device is connected directly to a desktop PC and Norstar set. A single CTA device can be connected to the Norstar, enabling CTI and TAPI applications on any PC on the LAN. Automatically detects to which COM port the CTA device is connected, eliminating the need to set the correct COM port during installation.
