When receiving a fax via the PBX, the appliances route pre-assigned fax numbers to standard analog ports connected to them. The FaxFinder fax servers receive and convert the fax to a PDF or TIFF file, which is attached to an email and sent to the proper recipient. Send fax operations can be from many Windows application using the bundled fax client software for Windows.

 

The FaxFinder fax server supports "Super G3" ITU V.34 standard fax communications, along with two-dimensional compression, real-time fax compression conversion, and ECM (Error Correction Mode). The new FaxFinder fax servers are shipping now. "These two new fax servers provide a major upgrade of our current line,"states Chip Harleman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Multi-TechSystems. "We have added significantly more power and memory to the units.

 

The extra processing and memory allows new features and capabilities, such asbeing able to convert incoming faxes to PDF files before sending them in emails, and being able to handle longer documents as a single email. These more robust units also prepare the way for future improvements.

 

The new units still have the same business mission: To make network faxing available to a wider range of companies, including those without a dedicated IT staff by bundling everything needed in a single, easy-to-use package. Considering that most other network fax solutions require expensive network server hardware, the new FaxFinder fax servers will both lower fax-networking costs and simplify the installation process."
