[Freeswitch-users] mod_openzap, sangoma, FAX and HW-HEC

[Helmut Kuper]

Hello, erm, Krzysztof (?) (broke my eyes first, then my tongue and at 
last my fingers :D :D ;-) )

well I use FS simply as a (G711a) passthrough gateway to good old analog 
fax devices connected via ATAs to FS. Bitrates are < 14400. Quite 
simple, works currently, but have to waive the HEC, until I tried the 
workaround. I will have in the end up to 60 fax devices, maybe a 
dedicated machine is needed then. But currently I have only two devices.


regards
helmut
