PBX vs IP PBX

A PBX system denotes Private Branch Exchange and an IP PBX system denotes Internet Protocol Private Branch Exchange. Both PBX and IP PBX are types of mobile systems used by organizations to control local and long distance calls.

Rirabh worked to replace the traditional PBX system with the new IP PBX System. IP PBX System is one the easiest to setup and manage systems among many VoIP Solutions that Rirabh offers. IP PBX System allows comfortable combining with the existing telecommunication system such as PRI, analogue and GSM.

What is PBX System or Traditional PBX ?

IP PBX is a modern business phone system that uses the internet to manage and route calls within a company, typically set up as a physical device in the office. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is a technology that enables voice calls over the internet, usable on various devices like computers and smartphones. IP PBX can utilize VoIP to connect calls, combining advanced call management with the flexibility of internet-based communication. Together, they offer cost savings, flexibility, and scalability for businesses, making communication more efficient and affordable.

How does it work ?

IP PBX uses the internet to handle phone calls instead of traditional phone lines. It relies on a stable internet connection and the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to send and receive voice data.

When you make a call using an IP PBX, your voice is converted into digital data packets. Incoming calls are similarly received as data packets. IP PBX converts these packets back into voice signals and sends them to the appropriate endpoint. The system ensures that the call reaches the intended recipient, regardless of their location.

The flexibility of IP PBX systems means that employees can work from anywhere, as long as they have an internet connection.
