[asterisk-users] FXO Cards - T38

[Rob Hillis]

Not unless you're running CallWeaver or Asterisk 1.6.0-beta4.  Asterisk 
has had passthrough support for T.38 for a while (somewhere in 1.4 it 
became available IIRC) but is currently completely incapable of 
terminating or encoding a fax call to T.38.

The only real option available at the moment is to keep one PSTN line on 
an ATA with an FXO port and T.38 support available and direct calls from 
the fax machines through to it.  However, I should point out that while 
I believe this should be possible, I haven't actually tried it myself.
