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

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

The "word" is, IOS v15 can give you SG3 speeds again on analog devices... haven't tried it yet though, we're still using 6608s in our core. :(

To be frank the easiest way to do FAX is to put them on to standard POTS. I wish I had 



We have used ATA187 (Just will hang up –but there is a new firm ware), VG224 (works OK),VG204(Works OK). You may want to look into a solution like Genifax if you can. If you do use an analog solution you will need to turn off error correction on the faxes and set the baud rate to 14.4 or lower. 



If you use SIP see if you can use the T.38 protocol, we are going SIP in 60 days.

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, 



Alexander A. Lindsay
