• POTS Lines Soon To Be Retired Under FCC 19-72A1
  In 2019, the Federal Communications Commission deregulated the copper lines, allowing suppliers to phase out support and replace the infrastructure with modern technologies such as fiber and wireless to support new digital applications. FCC Order 19-72A1 [1] orders the shift to the newer alternatives by August 2, 2022. How does this affect your current fax service if you are a WestFax subscriber or if you have a legacy copper line based service?

We'll discuss those challenges and how Cloud fax services exceed the capabilities of most, if not all, Fax over IP or SIP fax providers.
