T.38 Fax
T.38 fax relay is a real-time fax transmission; that is, two fax machines communicating with each other as if
there were a direct phone line between the two. T.38 is called a fax relay, which means that instead of sending
inband fax signals, which implies a loss of signal quality, it sends those fax signals out-of-band in a T.38
payload, so that the remote end can reproduce the signal locally.
The Mediatrix 4104 can send faxes in T.38 mode over UDP or TCP. T.38 is used for fax if both units are T.38
capable; otherwise, transmission in clear channel over G.711 as defined is used (if
G.711 µ-law
and/or
G.711
A-law
are enabled). If no clear channel codecs are enabled and the other endpoint is not T.38 capable, the fax
transmission fails.
The following is a T.38 fax call flow:

To set T.38 fax transmission:
1.
Enable T.38 by setting the
dataIfCodecT38Enable
variable to
enable
.
Standards Supported

•
Recommendation ITU T.38 version 0
Caution:
The Mediatrix 4104 opens the T.38 channel only after receiving the “200 OK” message from the
peer. This means that the Mediatrix 4104 cannot receive T.38 packets before receiving the “200 OK”. Based
on RFC 3264, the T.38 channel should be opened as soon as the unit sends the “INVITE” message. See
