given a gateway that supports it, theoretically it should be easy to receive t.38 or g711 faxes, convert them to tiff, and email them without any kind of extra boards or appliances. the box that tony's using is $700, which isn't going to break the bank, but there's not really any good reason i can think of to not just have an additional service running on your sipx box that handles faxes over ip. as far as i know asterisk can actually do this for 711 more or less out of the box, not sure about t.38.

If so, I think you're looking for a BrookTrout board. We use FaxCom, which is excellent software that makes use of a BrookTrout TR1034 card. The TR1034 is capable of either IP fax using T.38 over Ethernet, or T1-based fax (PRI, CCS, whatever) - it has two ports, a T1 port and an Ethernet port. In our implementation we're using PRI, not T.38, but we're planning to make the switch at some point in the future to simplify our setup. http://www.biscom.com/ -Steve From: Scott Richesson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2008 9:54 AM To: Tony Graziano; [email protected] Subject: Re: [sipx-users] T.38 Fax Termination Tony, Thanks. That device would certainly work, but I was hoping for something that didn't have to go through an analog FXO or FXS.

We do it now with uLaw, simply because our carrier is not supporting t.38 (yet). http://www.myitdepartment.net/content/view/46/68/ >>> Hello, We're using sipX 3.10.2 with an Audiocodes Mediant 1000 gateway. Currently we receive faxes with an Audiocodes MP124D FXS connected to a fax server with an analog modem that then emails the fax. Usually, this works OK, but I'm looking for something simpler. I'm looking for a fax server appliance or software that can directly receive a fax (and then email it) without getting an analog phone line involved. Has anyone used anything like this? Is this something that may be built into sipX someday? Using Google, I find several software packages that claim to do this. Our usage is light, so I'm looking for something that costs < $1000. Any recommendations? Thank You, Scott Richesson Cincinnati Fan
