UCM6xxx Series - Fax Server Guide
INTRODUCTION

Fax Server is one of the most useful and important UCM6xxx features that allows the user to send and
receive Fax files. The UCM6xxx IP-PBX series support T.30 for legacy analog Fax transmissions along with
T.38 and Pass-through for Fax Over IP. The UCM6xxx series provide a lot of options and methods to perform
sending/receiving Fax files depending on user’s resources and the way he/she wants to proceed.

UCM Fax Server supports T.38 which is a protocol that dictates how to send a fax over a computer data
network and requires a T.38-capable VoIP service or gateway (please check with your service provider for
this protocol support), otherwise the transmission of Fax will proceed via pass through using RTP for
sending facsimile signals.

This guide describes the steps to follow in order to perform sending and receiving fax files when the user
has an Analog Fax machine connected to UCM6xxx’s FXS Port or when he only wants to use a virtual fax
machine and benefit from the value-added features of the UCM6xxx related to fax.

SETUP UCM6XXX WITH PHYSICAL FAX MACHINE

PSTN Carrier
PSTN Line

SIP Trunk
Internet

FXS Extension Configuration

FXS (Foreign exchange station) is any telephone interface that is used for end-user analog telephony
equipment, (i.e. analog fax machine and analog phones) to provide battery power, dial tone and generate
the ringing voltage and therefore the user needs to create a “FXS Extension” for the Fax machine to be
used.

All the UCM IP-PBX models have two FXS ports to connect analog phone and Fax machine for typical SMB
installations.

Please, refer to the following steps in order to create the FXS extension:

1. Go to UCM6xxx Web GUI → Extension/Trunk → Extension.

2. Click on .

3. Under “Basic Settings”, configure the extension’s parameters.

Page | 5
UCM6xxx Series - Fax Server Guide
 Figure 1: Create FXS Extension for Fax Machine (Basic Settings)

4. Select the extension type to be “FXS Extension” and select which FXS port where the FAX machine
will be connected.

Figure 2: Create FXS Extension for Fax Machine (Media)

5. Under “Media”, set the “Fax Mode” to “Fax Gateway” so that the UCM6xxx can support
conversation and processing of Fax data from T.30 to T.38 and T.38 to T.30.

6. Click on Save and Apply changes.

UCM6xxx Series - Fax Server Guide
Connecting FAX Machine to UCM

After creating the FXS extension, the user needs to make sure of connecting his Fax Machine to the chosen
and configured FXS Port. The following figure shows the example of UCM6510’s FXS Ports.

Figure 3: FXS Ports of UCM6510 (Example)

Routing FAX Calls

As shown on below diagram, the fax transmission originates from the physical Fax machine as a T.30 fax.
Then the built-in T.38 gateway module in UCM6xxx translates the fax transmission to T.38 format and sends
it over the IP network to the other UCM6xxx.

The second Server translates back the transmission to T.30 and sends it the attached Fax Machine or over
the PSTN line for external numbers.

User needs to setup Trunks and call routing rules in order to route incoming and outgoing fax through the
desired trunk, we will show the steps to use analog and VOIP trunk to perform sending and receiving Fax
files.

UCM6XXX FAX VALUE ADDED FEATURES

The UCM IP-PBX series have many value-

added features related to fax and which can
help users who don’t have PSTN lines and
FAX machine to send and receive fax files
in PDF format.

Among these features we have the fax

sending from web GUI, fax to email, email
to fax and fax detection.

WEB GUI FAX SENDING

In order to use the FAX sending feature of the UCM, users need to follow below steps:

1. Under Web GUI→Extension/Trunk→Outbound Routes page, click on in order to

create an outbound route to use the fax trunk to send files. Refer to the previous steps [Outbound
Routes].

2. Select the trunk already created (Analog Trunk or SIP Trunk).

3. Access to UCM web GUI either using admin account or user portal (more on user portal here).

4. Go to UCM6xxx Web GUI → Value-added Features →Fax Sending.

5. Enter the fax number and upload the file to be faxed.

Figure 8: Fax Sending Settings

Note: The File needs to be a PDF or TIF/TIFF File.

 Figure 9: Format Error Message

Once the right file is selected, the Fax File will be successfully placed in the send queue and the user can
view the File Send progress that shows the status and progress percentage of files with also the possibility
to resend the failed ones using the resend button.

Figure 10: File Send Progress

FAX RESENDING

The UCM6xxx supports the options “Enable Fax Resend” and “Max Resend Attempts” which are available
under Call Features→Fax/T.38→Fax Settings page. These options allow the UCM to keep attempting to
send faxes up to a specified amount of times.

Additionally, if a fax still fails to send, a Resend button will appear in the File Send Progress list in Value-
Added Features→Fax Sending to allow manual resending.

To enable the FAX resend feature, please refer to following steps:

1. Under UCM6xxx Web UI → Call Features → Fax/T.38, check the option “Enable FAX Resend”.
2. Configure the “MAX Resend Attempts” with the maximum attempts number to resend the FAX.
