[VoiceOps] Audiocodes MP202B fax-to-https ATA

[Colton Conor]

Jay,

It is my understanding that the HTTPS function of the audiocodes was
developed and to be used with Faxback technologies solutions:
http://www.faxback.com/Solutions/AudioCodesFaxATA.aspx To answer your
question, I beleive you would have a Faxback server with PRI's at the other
end http://www.faxback.com/Products/HTTPSFaxATA.aspx

We use these through a 3rd party (concord fax) and they are awesome!
Everything goes over HTTPS. We use these for locations where the internet
is not always the best, or multi page faxes that don't do well over G711 or
T38
