Receive a fax on E1

Hi,

Client wants to use one of the DDI on a PRI for fax machine.

The PRI is coming in through Sangoma PRI card with HW Echo Can.

I thought of installing an Analogue Interface card with FXS port and plugging the fax into that.

Should this work? Is there a better way to do it?

Thanks

Hi

The echo canceling show turn off when its gets the fax tone, but yes thats the simplist way, Patton Gateways work well to do this as well as do sipura gateways as long as the network is OK

Thanks for the reply Ian. Which Sipura gateway? Is it specific to faxing? Or just a normal ATA?

Any one , Just make sure that you dont transcode and the network is Good.
