The Types of PBX:

There are four main types of MyPBX systems that are distinguished by location and operation. A PBX device can be located on the premises of the business, or offsite at a PBX management office. They can now operate by Internet protocol (IP).

The Four PBX Types Are:

Traditional PBX

•  Located at the business Place, and using analog or digital systems called Local PBX. 
• Located offsite, using analog or digital systems called hosted traditional PBX. 

IP-Based PBX

• On-Premise IP PBX or Onsite PBX offers more direct control over the phone system’s overall operation. Its handling is easy or It can be easily handled by Onsite IT professionals if there is a need to add, change, or delete a line from the system in your business.

•  Offsite or Hosted PBX gives the responsibility for configuration and maintenance to a service provider. The direct control of the PBX system is limited, but a company’s IT professional needs only a basic understanding of the phone system.
