Ingenium Software teams up with IP fax leader Sagemcom to leverage the latest Cisco IP networking architectures, including the recently announced Cisco Application eXtension Platform (AXP), a “green” IT solution which optimizes branch office infrastructures.

Montreal, Canada – February 5, 2009 – Sagemcom (Sagem Communications), the global leader* in advanced fax solutions for IP networks (xmediusfax.sagemcom.com), today announced that it has partnered with Ingenium Software, an Atlanta-based provider of enterprise software technologies, to extend the benefits of IP fax as part of a complete unified communications (UC) strategy. Ingenium will be offering Sagemcom’s entire XMediusFAX™ Fax over IP (FoIP) server software suite, which enables more efficient collaboration and accelerated ROI on converged IP and UC infrastructures.

In addition to the XMediusFAX SP, Enterprise and Express FoIP software editions, Ingenium will also be leveraging Sagemcom’s latest Cisco AXP–XMediusFAX FoIP green IT solution for enhancing UC strategies and branch office environments. Launched in April 2008 at the Cisco Partner Summit in Hawaii, it is the first IP fax solution to run inside a Cisco Integrated Services Router (ISR) over the Cisco Application Extension Platform (AXP), thereby improving network virtualization and reducing hardware footprint in branch office.
