Sometimes it is also known as PBX(Private Branch Exchange) or PABX(Private Automatic Branch Exchange). It is a telephone exchange system that is installed and maintained by a single company or organization. In contrast a public telephone exchange is a system that is operated for many companies, stores, general public household phones etc. Business telephone systems are often divided into two types, a key telephone system and a PBX. A key telephone system differs from Private Branch Exchange in that originally it did not require an operator or attendant at the switchboard to establish connections between various central office trunks and stations and between stations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">The EPABX system makes communication within an organization simpler. You can think of EPABX as a switching mechanism that facilitates routing of calls both internally and externally. An EPABX system includes cabinets, closets vaults and other housing, console or switchboard that helps to route the calls, interconnecting wires and cables, logic cards, switching and control cards, microcontroller or microcomputer, station or telephone sets, outside telco trunks, UPS with power switches and batteries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">The EPABX has the following functionalities:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Establishing connections between two lines or handsets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Maintaining connection and transferring voice signals between two such lines in connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Disconnecting connection as per the user\u2019s requirement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Metering calls for calculation of costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Apart from these there are several other functions of an EPABX system. Some of them are auto attendant, auto dialing, automated directory service, automatic call distributor, automatic ring back, call blocking, call forwarding, call transfer, call waiting, conference call, custom greeting, Direct Inward System access(DISA), Do Not Disturb, Interactive Voice Response, Music On Hold, Voice Mail, Voice Message Broadcasting, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\"><span lang=\"en-US\">The <\/span><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><span lang=\"zxx\"><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.velacctv.com\/products\/epabx\"><span lang=\"en-US\">installation of an EPABX system<\/span><\/a><\/u><\/span><\/span><span lang=\"en-US\"> for an organization should be carefully planned and implemented so that it can do away with the necessity of an operator or attendant. It should also be configured so that maximum usage of the EPABX system features takes place. VelaCCTV provides all kinds of EPABX installation.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"themify_builder_content-492\" data-postid=\"492\" class=\"themify_builder_content themify_builder_content-492 themify_builder\">\n    <\/div>\n<!-- \/themify_builder_content -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EPABX stands for Electronic Private Automatic Branch Exchange.
