OK, before we get to the nitty gritty, let’s do a simple breakdown of this contemporary phenomenon. We’re sure this will provide you with great cocktail party knowledge to share with all of the entrpreneurs in the room. A Private Branch Exchange (PBX) is a telephone exchange that serves a particular business or office, as opposed to one that a common carrier or telephone company operates for many businesses or for the general public.
PBXs are also referred to as Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX) and Electronic Private Automatic Branch Exchange (EPABX).
The history of the Private Branch Exchange dates back to when switchboard operators ran company switchboards by hand. As automated electromechanical and then electronic switching systems gradually began to replace the manual systems, the terms PABX and PMBX were used to differentiate them. The term original term, PBX, has now come to be applied to all types of complex, in-house telephony switching systems.
Historically, the expense of full-fledged PBX systems has put them out of reach of small businesses and individuals. However, since the 1990s there has been a large set of small, consumer-grade and consumer-size PBXs available. These systems are not comparable in size, robustness or flexibility to commercial-grade PBXs, but still provide a surprising set of features.
As VoIP becomes more popular with consumers, VoIP PBXs, otherwise known as IPBX, are beginning to show considerable presence in the market. Most modern PBXs now support VoIP.
