 Hi Steve,

 the remote device is an Hylafax Server that does ECM.

How is Hylafax connected to VoIP?

regards
Klaus

 The sending fax
 device, that's attached to the ATA, is a Philips fax machine with ECM
 enabled. If I send with the same machine but attached to a Patton
 4114 with T38 enabled my faxes go to the other end with ECM enabled
 and with no errors.

It would be interesting how the T.38 SDP differs between Grandstream and 
Patton.

klaus


 I've also tested the Grandstream ATA with analog fax machines
 attached to the PSTN and the results are the same: bad quality faxes
 or no faxes at all. Again, tested with the Patton device I get no
 errors.

 In this case I think it's the Grandstream.

 Best Regards, Alex

 Hello,

 I need a hand in choosing a small ATA, even with one FXS port,
 that should do only fax with T38.

 I’ve tried Grandstream (ht286 model) but the faxes go out without
 ECM, even if the Fax machine has ECM enabled.

 Is there anyone that can recommend an ATA that might do the trick?

 Thanks,

 Alex

 The Grandstreams do T.38 quite well, and they do support ECM. It is
 probably your service provider which is blocking ECM. Many of them
 do.

 People complain a lot about Grandstream, but its mostly their
 phones. Their ATA are amongst the better ones. Sadly, that doesn't
 mean an awful lot, as most ATAs are quite nasty.
