如何在Ubuntu 20.04|18.04上安装FreeSwitch
PBX is short fro Private Branch Exchange. It is a private telephone system used within an organization and customized to suit the needs of a particular organization. PBX users from an organization can communicate internally amongst themselves and also externally with the outside world. External communication is facilitated by channels such as VoIP (Voice over IP), ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) or analog.
The advantages of using PBX phone systems are that you can get more phones than the physical lines, free calls between users and massive features such as call queues, Digital receptionist, call forwarding, voicemail and call recording among others.
