Fax Over IP (FoIP) Implementations

Overview

A GFI FaxMaker Fax over IP implementation enables fax communications to be transmitted over the IP network rather than over long-distance lines. FoIP also eliminates the need for analog fax cards and devices, enabling GFI FaxMaker to be installed in a virtual environment such as:

  • Microsoft Hyper-V
  • Microsoft Virtual Server
  • Microsoft Virtual PC
  • VMware

Use a supported FoIP solution to integrate GFI FaxMaker with a digital telephony infrastructure. The FoIP solution may be configured to communicate with a VoIP PBX, a session border controller, a media gateway or directly to a hosted SIP trunk provider. These systems then communicate with the public switched telephone network (PSTN) to transmit or receive fax calls.
