How to send jms message to mq series

Question

Hi all,
I'm new to JMS and I've been asked to send an xml file to a IBM MQ series message queue.
I need to send this message from an application running on a tomcat webserver.
Basically, what packages do I need to start with that?
Is that possible without installing an MQ client on the webserver?
What parameters would I need to make a connection? I currently only know the QUEUE name and that the MQ is running on a different machine than the webserver is.
Thank you!
Steven
