Subject: FAX Adapters: How does a VoIP FAX Analog Telephone Adapter work?
The VoIP ATA for FAX is a powerful, cost-effective solution for
customers who need to securely send and receive faxes using a
traditional, analog fax machine - often needed for legal and
privacy compliance such as HIPPA or FERPA.
The term "fax" is shorthand for the more technical word, facsimile,
for the document transmission technology. The advent of ALL-IP fax
solutions today, can reduce costs and streamline business
communications. Many businesses have been able to replace their
old-fashioned fax machines with paperless, all-electronic fax
operations. However, lots of organizations must meet certain industry
compliance stipulations, legal requirements, and other regulations
that still demand the use of traditional paper fax machines. For such
enterprises, although they need to keep the fax machine, they may not
be able to use traditional analog phone line anymore. That's where the
VoIP adapter comes to the rescue.

Subject: Centurylink protest rejected
Qwest Government Services, Inc. d/b/a CenturyLink QGS (CenturyLink)
protests the issuance of a task order to Granite Telecommunications,
LLC under an unnumbered solicitation issued by AgFirst-Farm Credit
Bank. The solicitation seeks network/data services and software
defined wide area network (SD-WAN) services and contemplates issuance
of a task order under the General Services Administration's (GSA)
Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions indefinite-delivery,
indefinite-quantity contract. CenturyLink contends that AgFirst
unreasonably evaluated proposals under the technical and price
factors, impermissibly permitted individual credit unions to influence
the award decision, conducted inadequate and unequal discussions, and
failed to evaluate proposals for compliance with the Federal
Information Security Management Act.

I use Ring Central (ringcentral.com) for about $167/yr.
They give me a unique 800 number for receiving faxes, which they then e-mail
to me. To send a FAX, I e-mail it as an attachment to an address based on
the FAX number. Very, very few problems over the years.
