Fax Relay

Cisco Fax Relay is a proprietary fax relay implementation that uses Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) to transport fax data. It is the default fax relay type on Cisco voice gateways and the only supported fax option for Cisco Unified CME 4.0(3) and later versions.

This feature enable Skinny Client Control Protocol (SCCP) Fax Relay for analog foreign exchange service (FXS) ports under the control of Cisco Unified CME.

If your voice gateway is a separate router than the Cisco Unified CME router, an IP voice image of Cisco IOS Release 12.4(11)T or later is required.

SCCP Telephony Control Application is enabled.

• Add support for Cisco Fax Relay and Super Group 3 (SG3) to G3 fax relay.
• This feature allows the fax stream between two SG3 fax machines to negotiate down to G3 speeds (less than 14.4 kbps) allowing SG3 fax machines to interoperate over fax relay with G3 fax machines.
