You could always run another T100P into a HylaFAX-run T1 fax modem. That way you can use your T1 for faxing.

Could you explain a litter further? Thanks.

Well, you can do something like this:

T1 --> TE405P(1) --> Asterisk --> TE405P(2) --> Patton 2977 --> HylaFAX

So you've got a TE405P with 4 ports on it. Use one port to receive the T1 from the telco. Use another port to connect the T1 fax modem (Patton 2977 in this case).

When Asterisk gets a call on a "fax" DID, then it just Dial()s it through to the other port, handing the call off to the fax modem. This way Asterisk shouldn't be involved in anything other than "forwarding" the digital call packets to the fax device.

So, if you don't have another port, then you'd need to get an additional T100P to link up the T1 fax modem with Asterisk.

When I send a fax, will the call have to go through Asterisk to get one of the outside lines? If that's the case, I might not be able to send reliably. What do you think?


Thanks for all of your help.
Brian
