Last month, Black Ice software announced the release
of version 10.0 of the Fax C++/ActiveX, which
implemented V.34 faxing based on the Class 1.0 fax
command set. A fax sent at 33,600 bps (V.34) is more
than twice as fast as a fax sent at 14,400 bps. The
increased transmission speed increases performance by
drastically reducing training time. The same fax can
be sent in half the time as before, saving money on
phone bills.
Black Ice has recently expanded the
V.34 faxing capabilities of the Fax C++/ActiveX by
adding support for additional V.34 fax hardware from
Mainpine Ltd.. Mainpine Ltd. is the UK based
manufacturer of the RockForce line of multi-port fax
and voice cards, which include two, four, and eight
port cards, all of which support Class 1.0 V.34
faxing. RockForce fax cards are available through
resellers and distributors worldwide.
The RockForce cards are Universal
PCI 2.3 PNP compliant, 3.3V and 5.5V signaling, and a
world beating short board format, enabling hassle-free
physical installation into any server.
The RockForce line of cards are
also ideal for computer telephony applications
including voice and International CallerID. By
utilizing the Fax/Voice C++/ActiveX to develop a fax
or voice application, and using the RockForce line of
cards, developers and system integrators can create
high end, yet low cost, reliable fax and voice
systems.
Support for Mainpine’s RockForce
line of V.34 fax cards is a new addition to the list
of hardware supported by Fax/Voice C++/ActiveX.
