Introduction

The Black Box FaxReceiver MC200A is esigne to receive a fax an convert it into

an email to allow istribution that is more convenient an unwante faxes can be

electronically elete . The Black Box Fax-Receiver receives the fax an puts it into a

mail-server mailbox. From there, you or an a ministrator can rea an re- istribute

the fax to the appropriate email recipient on the network or print it if necessary.

This re uces paper waste, spee s up the communication an istribution of

information, allows automatic backup of receive faxes an eliminates the nee to

maintain a fax machine solely for the purpose of receiving faxes.

Easy Configuration

The setup is one using Telnet, which allows configuration in any network

environment like Win ows, Unix or Apple. Any Workstation or PC with Telnet

capabilities an access to the network can be use to configure the unit.

Features

External all voltage power supply (100-240 Volts, 50-60 Hz)

Extremely low power consumption of less than 5 watts.

Remote management from any PC

Retains its setup in Flash memory.

Powers up in less than 10 secon s.

Three login types, CRAM-MD5, LOGIN (AUTH=LOGIN) an non-authenticate .

System Architecture

The FaxReceiver MC200A uses a PCMCIA car to connect to the Fax Line; this allows the

FaxReceiver MC200A to be use in any country in the worl for which there is a PCMCIA

fax/mo em car available that fulfills the local stan ar s.

The FaxReceiver MC200A connects irectly to an Ethernet 10/100baseTx network via fixe IP

or DHCP. Before operating the evice a number of parameters have to be set up in the

FaxReceiver MC200A to allow log on to your company or Internet provi er's mail server.

3 ifferent login types, CRAM-MD5, LOGIN (AUTH=LOGIN) an non-authenticate . It will try

CRAM-MD5, first. If that fails, it falls back to insecure authentication (same as

Outlook Express uses), an it will fall back further to non-authenticate login if that

fails.

Setting up is achieve using the Telnet protocol an a telnet application is available for any

operating system. Check your PC, Apple or Unix operator manual.

Since the evice only relies on TCP/IP an SMTP it will work in any common network

environment.
