What is a PBX?

PBX stands for Private Branch Exchange. Each time you pick up a phone handset and dial a number, or forward a call, or place a call on hold, you’re using a PBX. The PBX is the hardware and software that allows phones to place and receive calls.

How Does a PBX Work?

PBXs can be part of your onsite hardware, or it can be offered as a hosted service, allowing your communications system to access a PBX through the cloud via your internet connection.

Think of a PBX like a traffic director, it directs and connects the calls placed on its assigned network.

ClearlyIP offers both on-site PBX systems (ClearlyIP Phone Systems) and a hosted PBX (Clearly Cloud), this means there is not need for bulky equipment or a dedicated space to store that equipment.
