Converged Private Branch Exchange
Also known as a CBX. CBXs are positioned as replacements for traditional Private Branch Exchanges (PBXs) and are part of an accelerating trend toward the merging of voice and data networks. CBXs differ from existing proprietary PBXs and key systems in that they are linked closely to data applications and Internet access through Local Area Networks (LANs). Some CBX products offer relatively high functionality for office telephone systems, plus a basic LAN interface, at prices that are far lower than those of similarly sized PBXs. Other CBXs offer moderate telephone system functionality, plus the ability to reconfigure voice systems to run across corporate LANs and IP backbones.
