            The magic sauce that you need is "T.38" - Asterisk 1.6
            supports this
            to a limited degree, and your ITSP will need to support it.

            The sip.conf.sample file and the voip-info wiki has all the
            information you need to try it out.


        Correct. However it would be helpful to note T.38 support in
        Asterisk
        is broken. Take a T.38 ITSP, T.38 enabled Asterisk and T.38
        ATA and
        try to send a fax. It won't work!


    We do this in our testing all the time, and it works fine. Since
    you didn't specify any particular version of Asterisk, there's no
    way to associate your "It won't work" statement with anything in
    particular. Given the variations of T.38 implementations that
    exist in ATAs, carrier networks and other places, *any* T.38
    connection that involves implementations from more than one vendor
    is (unfortunately) likely to have problems, whether any version of
    Asterisk is involved or not



well I tried  a linksys spa 8000 and 2102 thru
asterisk 1.8.3
1.8.4
1.6.2.16-19
sonus switch at itsp (012 israel)

and no luck


Cisco released updated firmware earlier this year for the SPA8000 & SPA2102 which addresses T.38 problems.

I have an SPA8800 which I was able to use T.38 mode to send faxes successfully, I recently updated Asterisk box and also updated to 1.8.5, haven't tested the SPA8800 with this config but I am expecting it will still work. The key to my success was to ensure the SPA8800 did not do a re-invite to the ISP for the RTP stream.
