Dear experts,

We have two FAX machines manage by Right Fax software,we also have 1 Cisco ATA 190 which we want to utilise 

we want to connect our two FAX lines to ATA 190 and integrate with CUCM

first of all i want to know the benefits of integrating FAX machines with CUCM using ATA 190 and the configuration how to do it?

Thanks for your kind support.

FAX'es are horrible to deal with in a VoIP environment.  They often cause issues.

If you don't need to migrate them to CUCM I would leave them on their current analogue lines.

is there any third party solution for this ? i.e, making the FAX digital but without integrating with CUCM which is more stable?

Thanks

No.  They all are just as bad as each other.
