In his latest CEO Commentary, Mike Coffee boasts that Commetrex leads the industry in fax-technology innovation. \u201cHow can that be?\u201d you say. \u201cWhat about the industry\u2019s volume leader?\u201d Well, innovation is one thing, establishing a strong market position over 30 years of consolidation is another. Coffee counts Commetrex\u2019 new SIP-T.38 technology as its latest innovation. He claims that fax servers that only support T.38 have an outbound fax-call completion rate that is at least five-percent lower than BladeWare equipped with T.38 and G.711 pass-through support with Commetrex\u2019 patent-applied-for \u201cSmart FoIP\u2122\u201d technology.<\/p>\n

Pssstt! Wanna really good V.34 fax board at a great price? Commetrex has it. If you\u2019ve been reading the Commetrex Outlook, you know we\u2019ve added support for PCI and PCI Express boards. And now we\u2019ve integrated our globally deployed V.34 fax into BladeWare, and you can take advantage of this great technology at a great price.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A two-port analog board is only $272.00. 8 port? Just $652.00. And an E1\/T1 with ISDN PRI is only $497.00. That\u2019s the hardware. Software is nominally $94.00 per port. But if you want to jump in on our beta, we\u2019re waiving the software fee for a limited time. If you\u2019re a current BladeWare developer, you\u2019ll need to license the MSP SDK for $500. If you\u2019re not a BladeWare developer, additional SDK fees are required.<\/p>\n

emFAST<\/a>, an enterprise-fax OEM that has used BladeWare for two years, is now shipping its EZ Fax Gateway product based on the BladeWare HMP fax server with SIP and T.38 support.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The FACSys(r) EZ Fax Gateway appliance allows any user on the enterprise network to send and receive faxes through a desktop client, browser, e-mail interface, MFP device or a fax-enabled application, providing a cost-effective and cost-saving fax messaging solution for an office environment. Although the product is price competitive with other fax-server appliances, emFAST reports that since it is based on the FACSys Foundation product, it is functionally extensible to include full enterprise-class features such as connectors for Blackberry Print-to-Fax, Microsoft Exchange, and Microsoft Sharepoint.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n FACSys(r) EZ is available in two versions: FACSys(r) EZ FoIP, which connects directly to IP networks that support the T.38 fax-over-IP protocol and FACSys(r) EZ Analog, which uses an included IP-to-PSTN gateway.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” el_class=”newsletter_inner_page” css=”.vc_custom_1578991890670{padding-top: 70px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column el_class=”newsletter_inner_page_bg”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cNo search results for FXS fax board\u201d. Wow! Can you believe it? Apparently, other than Commetrex\u2019 MSP FX\/S, there are no fax boards you can plug into a PCI or PCI Express slot that will support the direct connection of a legacy fax machine to the computer. But what about all those fax machines sitting around after a business acquires a fax server? What does the fax-server vendor that does not use Commetrex fax technology say when the prospect asks the inevitable question, \u201cWhat about my fax machines\u201d? Can I still use them?\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Well, the answer is that if they aren\u2019t decommissioned, the business continues to bear the expense of having those machines connected to the PSTN via a PBX or by a direct line to the PSTN at nearly $40.00 per month. \u201cJust call your own fax number from the machine, says the fax-server salesman, and our server will receive it. You will then be able to treat it as any image file.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n But it doesn\u2019t have to be that way. With the BladeWare MSP FX\/S boards, the user can send a fax to the server where it can be archived for compliance or other reasons and sent to the original dialed number without any further action by the user. Alternatively, the user can use the server\u2019s features to add a cover page and even edit the fax before it\u2019s sent on its way. Then there\u2019s least-cost-routing using BladeWare\u2019s in-development relay capability. But we\u2019ll have to tell you about that later.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Want to learn more about Commetrex\u2019 MSP boards?

The interview was about how Commetrex\u2019 burgeoning relationship with\u00a0Sangoma Technologies<\/a>\u00a0is changing the landscape for enterprise fax OEMs. Tom points out that the combination of Sangoma\u2019s unrivaled line of PCI and PCI Express analog and digital PSTN-interface boards, when combined with BladeWare, our HMP media server with T.38 and V.34 support, suddenly gives the Commetrex fax-server OEM the industry\u2019s broadest market coverage.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tom sums up the relationship like this, \u201cwe believe the combination of Commetrex\u2019s BladeWare technology in concert with the Sangoma product line and the overall price-performance make this a compelling solution for the enterprise fax OEM.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\nWho Needs FXS Fax Boards?<\/h3>\n
