MINNEAPOLIS, JUNE 5, 2006 – Multi-Tech® Systems, Inc., a leading data communications and telecommunications company based in suburban Minneapolis, is announcing four and eight port fax servers designed to simplify and lower the cost of networked faxing. The FaxFinder™ fax servers (Model FF420 – four port, and FF820 – eight port) are turnkey units that include all the hardware and software necessary for sending and receiving faxes via a PBX which is connected to a digital communications line such as a T1 or PRI. By connecting the fax server ports to PBX voice extensions, incoming and outgoing faxes can be received and transmitted using attached T1 or PRI channels, creating an efficient and cost-effective alternative to PC-based systems. The new FaxFinder fax servers are priced at MSRP of US$1799 for the FF420 and US$2999 for the FF820 .

"These new fax server models share many of the characteristics of our existing one- and two-port models," states Chip Harleman, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. "They share the same web browser interface for easy management, the same receive utilities for converting and delivering faxes via email, and the same Windows® utility for sending faxes as easily as printing a document. By keeping the operating characteristics as similar as possible, we have made upgrading easier, and centralized training and management very straightforward, for larger companies deploying multiple models at remote locations. By bundling everything necessary for a complete fax server into one package, we have made network faxing available to a wider range of companies, including those without dedicated IT staffs."

Installation of a FaxFinder fax server is as simple as connecting its ports to available analog station ports of a PBX, connecting a LAN to its 10/100BaseT port, and running a browser on a network PC to configure the FaxFinder server. When receiving a fax via the PBX, the PBX converts pre-assigned fax numbers to DTMF signals, and sends them along with the fax to the FaxFinder server. The FaxFinder converts the fax to a TIFF file, which is attached to an email and sent to the proper recipient. Send fax operations can be from any Windows® application using the bundled driver client software for Windows. The FaxFinder fax server supports "Super G3" ITU V.34 standard fax communications, along with two-dimensional compression, real-time fax compression conversion, and ECM (Error Correction Mode).
