Abstract
A method of operation of a call center system includes: providing an operator console having a first interface port and a second interface port; communicating with a local controller, having a primary interface port and a secondary interface port, by the operator console; establishing a redundant communication mode between the operator console and the local controller; and transmitting redundant messages between the operator console and the local controller including transmitting transmission headers having identical content on the first interface port and the second interface port.

A method of operation of a call center system comprising:
- providing an operator console having a first interface port and a second interface port;
- transmitting a transfer mode message from the first interface port for selecting a redundant mode of transfer;
- communicating with a local controller, having a primary interface port and a secondary interface port, by the operator console;
- establishing a redundant communication mode between the operator console and the local controller includes accepting a first message, to be received from the primary interface port or the secondary interface port, and disregarding a second message to arrive;
- and
- transmitting redundant messages between the operator console and the local controller including transmitting transmission headers having identical content on the first interface port and the second interface port.
A method of operation of a call center system comprising:
- providing an operator console having a first interface port and a second interface port;
- transmitting a transfer mode message from the first interface port for selecting a redundant mode of transfer including receiving a transfer mode acknowledge message by the operator console;
- accessing a network through the operator console by the first interface port and the second interface port including transmitting a first application message;
- communicating with a local controller, having a primary interface port and a secondary interface port, through the network by each of the primary interface port and the secondary interface port;
- establishing a redundant communication mode between the operator console and the local controller includes accepting a first message, to be received from the primary interface port or the secondary interface port, and disregarding a second message to arrive;
- and
- transmitting redundant messages between the operator console and the local controller including transmitting transmission headers having identical content on the first interface port and the second interface port.
A call center system comprising:
- an operator console having a first interface port and a second interface port including a transfer mode message sent from the first interface port for selecting a redundant mode of transfer;
- and
- a local controller, having a primary interface port and a secondary interface port, for establishing a redundant communication mode between the operator console and the local controller includes a first message to be received from the primary interface port or the secondary interface port accepted and a second message to arrive is disregarded.
