Multi-Tech (News - Alert) Systems, a manufacturer of unified communications devices and cellular modems for M2M communications, is expanding its fax server line series. The latest additions are the FaxFinder FFX40 models.

“The FaxFinder continues to be a successful part of our product portfolio,” said David Tincher, senior product manager at Multi-Tech. “Early models were more about replacing paper-based fax machines to streamline the faxing process, while saving on paper and toner costs. As more customers integrate using the web services API, we find they are sending larger faxes and so a more robust hardware platform was needed.”

“The FFX40 models address these needs with four times the internal memory of the previous versions,” Tincher added.

The FaxFinder fax server is an all-in-one appliance that allows users to send and receive faxes electronically, eliminating the need for legacy, paper-based fax machines and expensive subscription-based fax services. Incoming faxes are delivered to a recipient’s e-mail in-box or network folder so they can be accessed via personal computer, laptop or mobile device. Incoming faxes can also be routed to a network printer.

Outbound faxes can be sent using the FaxFinder fax client, a Web interface, or using the T.37 email-to-fax protocol. The FaxFinder fax client also allows faxes to be sent through Microsoft (News - Alert) Office applications.

The new FaxFinder FFX40 fax server is noted to combine more robust hardware design and Multi-Tech fax software, allowing organizations to easily centralize their fax operations, reduce operational costs, integrate with business applications and PBX (News - Alert) systems, and easily integrate with any business operation.

Whether transmitting legal documents or electronic health records that contain medical charts and large media files, like CT scans and MRIs, the new FFX40 models is noted to meet the critical faxing needs of today by increasing three-fold the maximum file size capacity. The expansion of internal memory from 256K to 1GB enables these larger files to be sent faster and to larger groups of recipients.

Each of the new FFX40 models is also rack-mountable for easy installation and management by a company’s IT department.

Multi-Tech offers solutions for a variety of industries including transportation, energy, healthcare and remote monitoring, as well as products including device networking, embedded device networking, and unified communications, among others.

Back in 2011, Multi-Tech Systems teamed with Sprint, an embedded M2M solutions company.
