This means that BladeWare users can elect to complete IP fax calls using V.34, rather than forcing a fallback to V.17 speeds, which take twice as long to transmit a page.<!--more Full Post--> This is important since there are few <a title=\"T.38 Fax Relay Software\" href=\"http:\/\/commetrex.com\/products\/fax-portal-2\/t-38-fax-relay-software\/\">T.38<\/a> Version 3 V.34-capable gateways on the market, and none deployed in carrier networks. Indeed, many VoIP service providers have yet to support T.38 in any version. In these situations, BladeWare delivers faxes with one-half the connection time of any server on the market.<\/p>\n<p>For example, here at Commetrex we use Cbeyond, an all-IP managed-services provider, for all of our communications over a 3-Mbit clear-channel pipe to Cbeyond\u2019s private metro network. But they don\u2019t support T.38. Instead, all faxes are handled with G.711 pass-through, including V.34, and they are virtually error-free. A<em> BladeWare<\/em>-based server is setup to use Cbeyond\u2019s SIP trunking. It\u2019s all software, all IP, and with V.34 support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut how can that be?\u201d you say. \u201cMy vendor tells me that G.711 pass-through fax just doesn\u2019t work.\u201d Well, your vendor has a biased perspective since he can\u2019t do it, and doesn\u2019t want you to ask for it, knowing that only Commetrex supports <a title=\"V.34 Fax Modem\" href=\"http:\/\/commetrex.com\/products\/v-34-fax-modem\/\">V.34<\/a>. Yes, there are networks where G.711 pass-through does not perform well, but there are many where it does. The example above is one. And how about when an IP PBX without T.38 support is being used as the gateway between the PSTN and the fax server? There, the IP connection is over a high-performance LAN. No packet loss need be dealt with, and Commetrex\u2019 exclusive PCM-clock management software means even long G.711 faxes come through error-free.<\/p>\n<p>Need a fax-resource platform to support IP and PSTN?
