Attaching Fax Machine to Cisco IP Phone

[Robert Shields]

I have a Cisco IP 7965 Phone. Is it possible to attach a fax machine to/through the IP Phone without a traditional phone line? Can the AUX port be used for this purpose?

Hi Robert

No - there's no way to do that.

You can attach a fax to your Cisco phone system using an ATA or Voice Gateway, but not through a phone.
