User's Manual 15. Media
To configure whether to pass V.34 over T38 fax relay, or use Bypass over the High Bit
Rate coder (e.g. PCM A-Law), use the 'V.34 Fax Transport Type' parameter
(V34FaxTransportType).
You can use the 'SIP T.38 Version' parameter (SIPT38Version) in the Advanced
Parameters page (Configuration tab > VoIP menu > SIP Definitions > Advanced
Parameters) to configure one of the following:
Pass V.34 over T.38 fax relay using bit rates of up to 33,600 bps ('SIP T.38 Version' is
set to Version 3).
Use Fax-over-T.38 fallback to T.30, using up to 14,400 bps ('SIP T.38 Version' is set
to Version 0).
Notes:
• Transcoding of T.38 Version 3 is supported only for Gateway calls. For SBC calls,
the device forwards T.38 Version 3 transparently (as is) to the other leg (i.e., no
transcoding).
• For T.38 Version 3 support, ensure that the relevant DSP firmware template is
installed on the device. For a list of supported DSP templates, see SBC and DSP
Channel Capacity on page 1061.
• The CNG detector is disabled in all the subsequent examples. To disable the CNG
detector, set the 'CNG Detector Mode' parameter (CNGDetectorMode) to Disable.
15.2.3.1 Bypass Mechanism for V.34 Fax Transmission
In this proprietary scenario, the device uses bypass (or NSE) mode to transmit V.34 faxes,
enabling the full utilization of its speed.
To use bypass mode for T.30 and V.34 faxes:
1. In the Fax/Modem/CID Settings page, do the following:
a. Set the 'Fax Transport Mode' parameter to Bypass (FaxTransportMode = 2).
b. Set the 'V.22 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V22ModemTransportType = 2).
c. Set the 'V.23 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V23ModemTransportType = 2).
d. Set the 'V.32 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V32ModemTransportType = 2).
e. Set the 'V.34 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V34ModemTransportType = 2).
2. Set the ini file parameter, V34FaxTransportType to 2 (Bypass).
To use bypass mode for V.34 faxes, and T.38 for T.30 faxes:
1. In the Fax/Modem/CID Settings page, do the following:
a. Set the 'Fax Transport Mode' parameter to T.38 Relay (FaxTransportMode = 1).
b. Set the 'V.22 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V22ModemTransportType = 2).
c. Set the 'V.23 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V23ModemTransportType = 2).
d. Set the 'V.32 Modem Transport Type' parameter to Enable Bypass
(V32ModemTransportType = 2).
