A fax bridge is a system or service that connects a digital network to a traditional telephone line, enabling the transmission of faxes between digital devices (like computers, smartphones, or email) and analogue fax machines. It acts as a fax gateway, allowing businesses and individuals to send and receive faxes without needing a physical fax machine.

How does a fax bridge work?

A fax bridge typically:

• Integrates with digital communication platforms (e.g., email, cloud storage)

• Connects to traditional phone lines for fax transmission

• Provides secure and reliable fax delivery and receipt

• Supports for multiple file formats, such as PDFs or TIFFs

• Compatible with various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and computers

   

Why your business needs a fax bridge?

Fax bridges allow businesses to continue using traditional fax methods while modernising their communication systems. They eliminate the need for physical fax machines and help businesses stay compliant with industry standards (e.g., HIPAA for healthcare) while offering more flexibility. A fax bridge enables secure, efficient, and scalable faxing solutions, which is essential for industries where fax communication is still prevalent.
