Supported codecs, video and fax (T.38)

Our VoIP platform automatically converts between codecs, so most devices work with their default settings. For the best call quality put G.722 first.

Fax machines

A fax machine can be connected through a VoIP adapter (ATA) that supports T.38. Enable T.38 on the ATA, set the fax machine to a slower speed (9600 bps) and turn off error correction mode (ECM) if pages fail. For occasional faxes, a fax-to-email service is simpler – ask us.
