description A Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX) is a telecommunication system widely used within organizations to facilitate internal and external communication. Also known as a private telephone system or a private branch exchange, a PABX serves as a centralized switching system that enables users to make calls within the organization and to external phone lines. PABX systems manage incoming and outgoing calls and provide features such as voicemail, call forwarding, conferencing, and extension dialling, contributing to streamlined communication within the business environment. They are particularly advantageous for large enterprises where multiple telephone lines and extensions are required. With the advent of digital and IP-based technologies, modern PABX systems often integrate additional features such as computer telephony integration (CTI), unified messaging, and support for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). While traditional PABX systems rely on analog technology, contemporary systems leverage digital and IP technologies for enhanced efficiency, scalability, and integration with other business communication tools.
