Faxing

You can fax documents via the enhanced voice service. Connect a fax
machine to either "Voice Line" jack on the ICM and dial the fax
number as you would a voice call (see "Making a Ship-to-Shore Call"
on page 44).
NOTE: Faxing requires 70 kbps bandwidth for sending and up to 90 kbps
bandwidth for receiving. When fax and voice are used simultaneously, the
bandwidth requirement increases to between 100 kbps and 170 kbps.
For extremely reliable faxing, KVH offers the UCH-250 fax server (see
"UCH-250 Fax Server" on page 54). The UCH-250 avoids the industry-
wide problem of dropped or incomplete faxes commonly associated
with faxing over Voice over IP (VoIP) connections.
