Webinar: Dialogic Shares How to Transition Traditional Fax to IPBy Michelle Robart, TMCnet Editor Many IP-PBX (News - Alert) vendors, VARs and Systems Integrators believe that traditional faxing will soon become extinct. In an effort to move forward, they believe in connecting fax machines to a VoIP network with an Analog Telephone Adaptor (ATA), and just living with the 80 to 90 percent success rate until fax no longer exists.
The convergence of Voice and Data onto a single network is becoming a reality, with IP-PBX shipments accounting for more than 50 percent of all new ports shipped.
But with all the excitement around this ongoing technical revolution, little attention has been paid to the unreliability of traditional fax technology if implemented over a VoIP network.
However, facts suggest that fax technology will continue to play a major role in the telecom infrastructure in the future. If this is the case, being able to effectively transition fax to the IP infrastructure will be important in order to receive the financial and administrative benefits of a converged network.
If interested in learning more about these important topics, join Dialogic (News - Alert) Enterprise Marketing Manager, Jeff Dworkin, along with Technology Marketing Corporation Group Managing Editor, Erik Linask, for a live Webinar on Tuesday, September 30, 2008 at 2:00 p.m. ET / 11:00 a.m. PT.
The Webinar, “Completing the Convergence (News - Alert): Reliable Fax Over Your VoIP Network,” examines and compares Fax Pass-through and T.38 Fax Relay for moving facsimile traffic through a converged Voice and Data network. Presenters will provide detailed information on the effects of Delay, Jitter and Packet loss.
Also covered will be the cost and administrative benefits offered by adding a Fax Server to a converged network, as well as the additional benefits that can be derived from including Multi-Function Peripherals (MFPs) in the network infrastructure.
After the presentation, the Webinar will be open for a live Q&A with Jeff Dworkin, so
