I believe the TDM2400 has the capability of doing on-card fxo->fxs data
flows (without hitting the pci bus), but that function has not yet been
implemented. Its basically "required" to support faxes in an analog
environment. When it is implemented, that card should work. The TDM400
card will not work in 99% of the deployments.
Faxing via T1 cards is known to work in a fairly large number of
deployments, but its likely to be highly dependent on exactly where the
fax machine is located relative to *. Eg, incoming pstn fax via a T1
that is expected to be switched to a sip ata adapter has "lots" of
technical and specific infrastructure dependencies that have to be
addressed by the implementor / engineer. The plug-n-play approach will
have a very high failure rate.

I must agree with you. I too buy Digium cards because I want to support the
development of asterisk. Asterisk is a great product but digum cards are a
pain, they say they don't support faxing but a lot of people that are
implementing asterisk "demand" or "need" faxin as a day to day service on
their PBX's.
Sad to see that faxing is nearly impossible on digium cards. To me is like
saying "here you have a great car but.. It cannot handle a car stereo" :(

|I am so fed up with Digium cards. My company first owned a
|TE410P, I installed it in a Dell server and "enjoyed" its
|instability (we bought it months before Digium warned about
|the incompatibility issues). Then we switched to a TE411P for
|the hardware echo cancellation. Now we want to receive fax (<
|20/day) on it and guess what ? Since April 2006 (again a few
|months after we bought our brand new card), "officially, fax
|communications is not supported with Digium cards" (
|http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+fax ).
|Of course, I should have guessed that it is far too much to
|ask to a $2495 card ! Is the "fax" extension in Asterisk just
|there to push us to the competing products ?
|
|We hesitated to buy another Digium card after the problems
|with TE410P, but I told myself it was nice to support Asterisk
|by buying some Digium cards. Now Digium make us regret our
|buys and a disappointed customer is a lost customer forever...
|Too sad...
