FaxStorm
NetCentric ™ Internet Fax
Internet faxing (NetCentric FaxStorm) brings together the power
of the PC and the economy of the Internet. Outgoing faxes are
relayed from your desktop to a network provider’s fax server over
an IP connection. From the server, the fax job is transmitted across
the Internet using sophisticated least-cost-routing algorithms, then
delivered to a fax machine using local phone lines, or to another
computer as an e-mail attachment. Faxes can be sent to a single
recipient or to multiple recipients. NetCentric
™ FaxStorm tracks
your faxes to their destinations, and informs you of their status.
When servers are down due to Internet outages, NetCentric
™
FaxStorm re-routes your fax jobs and requests for account status.
You can access incoming faxes from any web-connected desktop
and even forward them to others directly from the Inbox account.

™ FaxStorm, see the online
