[cisco-voip] New to Cisco Voice - Need to Setup Fax

[Alex Lindsay]

Hello,



I have a small MetroE network and I would like to consolidate my Faxing as I
have done with my Voice.  I have a 7200vxr with VXB T1 card to connect to my
PRI (that I got with the anticipation of fax oIP, to be frank, sucking).  Am
starting to use that same PRI for in LATA calls managed by my local SBC but
my primary LD is sent to a ITSP via SIP.



My question and thoughts are as follows;  What is the simplest solution to
support about 25 Fax attached ATA’s (spa8000, spa2102 & Audiocodes MP-2032)
to the voice gateway (PRI router)?  I was thinking of setting up a Cisco
2821 (that I already have) with a PVDM2-32/64 and CME 4.3/7 with a SIP trunk
to the voice gateway.



Forgive my ignorance.  I am a diehard R&S guy and got through into the Voice
world.



·         Do I need to PVDM2 if I am doing only SIP to SIP?

·         Does that version of CME support T.38 well or at all?

·         What is this Fax Relay all about and do I need it? I am reading
mixed reviews.



Thank you for any advice, help or information.





My Regards,
