Communication Transformation (from Traditional to Modern Tools)

Communication Transformation (from Traditional to
Modern Tools)
An IP private branch exchange (PBX) is a
telephone switching system which enables the
users within an organization to communicate
through local lines and enable external
communication through VoIP and external phone
lines. A typical kind of PBX can also switch
calls between a traditional phone and VoIP or
even among two traditional phones just like the
traditional PBX. The abbreviation of IP/PBX come
in many faces i.e. IP-PBX, IPPBX, or IP/PBX. The
traditional PBX only allowed on medium of
communication at a time. Yet two different PBX
were required to connect IP phones and
traditional phones simultaneously. Now with the
advent of IP/PBX, the system has ease to
entertain more communication mediums
simultaneously. The converged data and network
technique applied in IP/PBX have allowed the
communication through VoIP, Internet, and
traditional access at once. Same as the PBX, and
IP- PBX is also owned by an enterprises and used
for business communication.
Benefits and Practical Advantages
With the help of IP phone system, all the
internal communication is routed through the LAN
(Local Area Network), yet a different network is
not required for the telephone channels. In
addition to this the IP-PBX is also possible to
connect to the same network through gateway to
PSTN. Connecting an IP-PBX to the overall network
means employing more communication mediums i.e.
VoIP, telephone through internet, and many other
communication channels.
IP phone allows the freedom of choice when it
comes to connection, yet the connection to the IP
phone itself is constrained by the traditional
hardware. With the use of IP-PBX now one do not
have to search for a free telephone port on the
exchange. Instead, the phone can be connected
through any LAN connection around the office.
Furthermore, the IP-PBX have eliminated all
boundaries and restrictions to a business
communication. IP-PBX have enabled connection
through the internet which enables to virtually
set up an office almost everywhere in the world.
This geographic distance is usually calibrated
through a VLAN i.e. virtually local area network.
This provides independence on geographic location
of the users, yet allowing all of them to connect
to the same network at once and build
communication.

The biggest practical advantage of IP-PBX is the
communication between the teams at office and the
mobile teams (who are not in the same office).
This connection is independent of the location
even if the person is on road, travelling or in
an airplane. All what an employee require to
connect to an IP-PBX is a valid internet
connection. The possible hardware for this
connection to IP-PBX is Smartphones, IP phone,
laptops, desktops, and tablets.
This has provided the company with an advantage
to connect to the customer without evening the
person knowing that the person connecting is in
the office or not. Conferences were previously
scheduled keeping a close tab on each executives
schedule yet to enable each executive to be at
the conference. Now with the IP-PBX, the
executives can connect to the office through any
possible location and medium. Source
