Abstract

Method and apparatus for routing a non-circuit switched contact to an agent in a circuit switched telephony-based automatic call distribution (ACD) system, without using a voice port for the external contact. A media-port is used to emulate the voice port, permitting the routing of the non-circuit switched contact through the telephony-based ACD system.
