NetGen Communications Announced Smart ATA 2.0, Complete with Smart FoIP Integration
ROSWELL, Ga., Sept. 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In January of this year, NetGen Communications, Inc. (NetGen) announced the availability of Smart ATA, a full-function two-line voice-fax ATA, gateway, and IAD, and the first ATA with T.38 version 3 with V.34. Today, NetGen announced the immediate availability of version 2.0 of the product with Commetrex' patent-pending Smart FoIP® fully integrated. At a list price of $130, the fully configured unit has two station, two office, and two Ethernet ports. Smaller configurations, quantity discounts, and distributor pricing are available.
Smart ATA is the only ATA that offers reliable FoIP when making calls into carrier networks. This is because Smart FoIP is a software product that solves two big problems with FoIP that have been vexing ITSPs ever since they have been making fax calls in IP-carrier networks:
-- No more late-T.38-reInvite problems
-- No more PCM-clock-sync problems
Smart FoIP means that ITSPs that have resorted to non-standard and non-real-time solutions to FoIP problems can now rely on T.38 and G.711 pass-through FoIP in SIP networks and achieve the same fax-completion rates as with PSTN fax. Smart FoIP also takes care of the very intricate set up required to support T.38 V3 with V.34 in IP-PSTN gateways and ATAs.
David Greenwald, the product's team lead says: "Since carrier-based FoIP calls begin as a voice call, the two endpoint fax terminals can 'hear' each other early in the call as soon as the connection is established. At that time, they begin executing the T.30 fax protocol. But if the carrier is late (over six seconds) in attempting to switch to T.38, it will unwittingly kill the fax if the calling gateway does not have Smart FoIP. And multi-page failures in G.711 FoIP are all too common. Smart FoIP eliminates them by making all multi-page faxes appear to be multiple single-page faxes. Problem solved!"
About NetGen Communications
NetGen Communications, Inc., a Commetrex spin-out, was founded by Commetrex to develop, produce and market ATA, gateway, and server products for the ITSP. Initially, this means helping the ITSP to meet subscribers' requirements for FoIP that matches the reliability of TDM fax. Beyond that, NetGen's development focus is to leverage Commetrex' rich technology and product portfolio to bring new values to the ITSP.
