The Ultimate Guide to Understanding FaxBridge

As the economy continues to tighten, companies everywhere are combining fax, data, and voice resources to simplify infrastructure and save money. Fax over IP (FoIP) and voice over IP (VoIP) have become part of many organizations’ cost-cutting strategies. With these technologies, companies eliminate hardware, streamline operations, and decrease spending. FaxBridge is a crucial component of a unified communications strategy, and we will discuss it below.

What is FaxBridge?

FaxBridge is an ATA or analog telephone adapter that connects conventional fax machines to internet services. With no need for a dedicated phone line, FaxBridge saves money. All documents are sent over our secure network, which means they’re delivered reliably and in compliance with privacy laws. Business owners can get more details about FaxBridge by visiting our website or calling our customer service line.

How it Works

FaxBridge gives a fax machine an IP address, which allows it to send and receive data via our cloud network. Any fax-ready analog device can be linked to a FaxBridge, including all-in-one printers and standalone fax machines.

When connected to one of our FaxBridge devices, fax machines can be used securely from anywhere there’s a stable internet connection. With auto-provisioning capabilities, there’s no need for remote software setup. FaxBridge eliminates the requirement for POTS lines and needs only a power source and broadband internet to work.

Our FaxBridge devices supercharge conventional fax machines, allowing users to eliminate unneeded phone lines and transmit faxes online. They don’t need special software or technical skill for setup, and it’s easy to check device status via our web portal.

The Benefits of FaxBridge

FaxBridge devices give fax machines additional capabilities that increase convenience and savings. Without the need for additional phone lines, businesses can save money each month.  Because the device is connected to the internet, you can get and send faxes from anywhere—all you need is network access. FaxBridge brings the features and benefits of fax to any device, making it easier than ever to send and receive crucial information.

Aside from convenience and cost efficiency, FaxBridge offers upgraded functionality. Unlike regular fax machines, connected machines can handle several faxes simultaneously. This benefit shortens waiting times and makes offices more efficient. Faxes are sent and received digitally but can still be printed if needed. With these great benefits, it’s no surprise that more businesses are switching from conventional fax to FaxBridge.

Is It Safe?

A common misconception about online fax concerns its reliability. Many users worry that cloud fax via FaxBridge isn’t as dependable as conventional fax, but it’s not true. Our cloud fax network uses the most stringent protocols to ensure safe, secure, and reliable transmission of information over the internet.

Security is another major concern for users in certain fields. Lawyers and doctors, for instance, fear that sending sensitive information online may lead to security breaches and data loss. We take security very seriously, using military-grade encryption to protect faxes in transmission. With FaxBridge and mFax, you will enjoy convenient, safe, reliable, and secure faxing.
