Fax communication has its unique benefits and this is what accounts for renewed interest in fax communication across the sectors. In response to this market demand, Aculab (News - Alert) has enhanced its ApplianX IP Gateway (News - Alert) with the addition of V2.20 software.

V2.20 software, which according to Aculab is a resilient, single-purpose, plug-and-play device designed for both enterprise and service provider environments and has been designed to offer a fax service to all employees regardless of location.

The integration of software adds to the feature list of ApplianX IP Gateway. The most important among them is the support for full T.38 fax interoperability, which is supposed to enable a total fax solution within an IP environment.

In addition to T.38 fax support, V2.20 software also includes a number of other features, including T1 hookflash transfer and improved diversion information availability.

“We are very pleased to offer full T.38 fax support within the V2.20 software release. We are seeing renewed interest in fax communications across many sectors, particularly in areas such as financial services and health care. Our support of T.38 fax eliminates the need for analog fax machines and their associated ports on the PBX (News - Alert), thus providing a fax service to all employees regardless of location, as well as supporting modern IP fax servers,” Tim Joint, commercial manager for the ApplianX product range, said.

The Aculab officials informed that the ApplianX IP Gateway can be configured for a maximum number of simultaneous fax calls to maintain call quality and prevent faxes from blocking both incoming and outgoing voice calls. 

The ApplianX IP Gateway supports a wide range of international protocols, making the device suitable for worldwide deployment in both enterprise and service provider networks. A number of leading solution providers, including Avaya and Cisco (News - Alert), have certified the ApplianX IP Gateway for integration with legacy TDM-based PBXs.

Aculab has informed that its ApplianX IP Gateway is available from approved resellers throughout Europe, North America and Asia.
