Private Automatic Branch Exchange – sometimes shortened to PBX (the days of the manual switchboard are all but over) – the term refers to private switchboards, providing internal telephony services to an organisation, and the interface with external telephone lines. http://www.auditmypc.com/acronym/PABX.asp |
