Options

Select which standard the WiMAX Device uses to handle faxes. The peer devices must

 

also use standard.

 

G.711A Pass Through - Select this option to send and receive fax messages over the

 

network or Internet using VoIP (G.711a). By encoding fax data as audio data, faxes

 

may be susceptible to packet loss and other errors. However, as this standard is

T.38 FAX Relay - WiMAX Device encodes fax messages to T.38 packets and sends as

 

UDP packets through IP networks. This provides better quality, but it may have

 

interoperability problems.
