Internet PBX

The Internet PBX (Private Branch Exhange) or the Internet Protocol PBX (IP PBX) is a communication system that contains the same functionality of modern corporate phone systems. The only difference that they have is the price. The former is a cheap communication system while the latter can only be afforded by multinational companies because of its expensive price. Although the IP PBX is cheap, it does not come cheap on its features. This communication system was made to provide small and medium businesses with an affordable and competent phone system.

Traditional telephone systems transfers communication data via telephone lines and phone networks but IP PBX phones operate in a different manner. This telephone system transmit communication as packets of data that are sent through the Internet. Communication transactions are done faster with the Internet since occasional problems such as busy or loss of signals will not be encountered.

Internet call forwarding is among the most useful features of IP PBX phones. It enables your phone system to forward calls to other phone extensions outside of your office. A call forwarding service such as this would give your business more mobility and flexibility in communication. You will no longer be tied to your office to communicate since your customers can still contact you even if you are traveling.

Another popular feature of IP PBX is the Internet fax. This feature allows you to send and receive fax without employing a fax machine. You not only save on communication expense but also on office space since a traditional fax machine uses up much space. Like its call forwarding feature, the Internet fax is also accessible beyond the premises of your company. You will no longer need to purchase an Internet fax software because your IP PBX service provider will provide your company.
