An acronym for Private Branch eXchange. PBX telephone systems support incoming calls from the outside PSTN, placing calls between users' phones (also known as extensions) and other phones or the outside PSTN, conferencing other users together, recording voicemails and a variety of other advanced telecommunication functions. PBX systems are broadly broken into several categories: traditional (also known as legacy); converged (also known as hybrid) or pure IP, aka IP-PBX.

'''Asterisk''' is a telephone [[PBXs|private branch exchange]] (PBX), created in 1999 as open software for Linux and other UNIX-like systems.
+
-
Like other private branch exchanges, it allows attached telephones to make calls to one another and provides connections to outside lines to make and receive calls. To Asterisk, a VoIP provider represents a means to [[Order a DID Number|obtain a direct inward dialable number]] to receive calls and a trunk for outbound calls.

Asterisk is at the heart of various products, such as [[FreePBX / PBX in a Flash (IAX2)|PBX in a Flash]] and [[Trixbox]], intended to join multiple individual telephone extensions or [[devices]] as one office-style system. There are even versions of Asterisk which run under OpenWRT, an embedded Linux which was installable on some Linux-based Linksys routers.

PBXes is a hosted PBX running like a voicemail service or an email server in a data center. Like a classical PBX it serves as the bridge between your organisation (the extensions) and the public telephone network (the trunks). Thus it optimises both your internal and external communications. As trunks any SIP providers worldwide may be used.

What is a PBX?

An acronym for Private Branch eXchange. PBX telephone systems support incoming calls from the outside PSTN, placing calls between users' phones (also known as extensions) and other phones or the outside PSTN, conferencing other users together, recording voicemails and a variety of other advanced telecommunication functions.

PBX systems are broadly broken into several categories:

  • Traditional (also known as legacy) - Usually don't support IP at all or support it only with expensive add-on equipment
  • Converged (also known as hybrid) - Support IP and PSTN connections with equal force. Most flexible and cost-effective model
  • IP-PBX - Support only IP connectivity. Any PSTN connectivity must be achieved through external converters (Gateways)
