IP Telephony
Internet Protocol (IP) Telephony is the transmission of voice,
fax and related services over packet-switched IP-based
networks.
IP Telephony uses the Internet to send audio between two or
more computer users in real time, so that users can converse

Types of IP Telephony
Personal Computer (PC) to Personal Computer
Personal Computer to Telephone or Fax
Personal Computer to a content providers call centre or
website
Telephone-to-Telephone communications via the Internet.

How Does It Work?


In one side gateway connects to the telephone word. It can
communicate with any phone in the world.
On the other side, the gateway connects to the Internet world.
It can communicate with any computer in the world.
The gateway takes the standard telephone signal, digitizes it,
compresses it, packetizes it for the Internet using IP protocol
and routes it the destination over the Internet.
The gateway reverses the operation for packets coming in from
the network and going out the telephone.
Both the operations take place at the same time allowing a full
duplex conversation.

IP PABX
What is an IP PBX?

The PBX a device for switching telephone calls within a


building such as office , block or factory.
Before PBXs were computerized, the attendant manually
connected both the caller and the person being called by
physically inserting a cord.
PABX is simply an automatic version of the PBX. The PABX
is also faster with data communication, and can handle more
telephone calls at the same time.

FUNCTION OF A PBX
A PBX is a means of providing switched communications to a
number of different users, usually within one or a group of
buildings. The PBX also acts as the primary interface to either
public or leased networks via either direct connection or a
series of gateways
Make contact of communication among the various
departments of railway.
Transmission speed :
-Digital PBX : 64 Kbps , Non-standard system : higher data

-ISDN PBX : 144 Kbps rate

What are the Advantages of an IP PBX?


Compared to a conventional PBX, an IP PBX
Handles both voice and data
Is cheaper since it requires only one network to install and maintain
instead of two
Reduces equipment costs (only IP based products; no voice products
needed)
Reduces long distance charges for inter-branch office calls (by using
the data network)
Is easier to provision (just plug in from wherever)
Supports services such as unified messaging
Is more flexible , scalable
Makes it easier to provide new services, such as data and video
collaboration
Allows remote configuration (over the Web)

DISADVANTAGES
Limited transmission bandwidth.

Designed primarily for voice traffic.

PBX failure could be catastrophic if a large proportion of all


voice and data traffic are reliant on it.

High cost per port for voice and data, especially if only a
limited number of data users.

PBXs are at present most widely used to switch voice, not


data.

PBX is perceived as a telecommunications and not a data


processing facility.

CONCLUSION
The conclusion that can be derived from the overall studies is
that it is very simple in functioning. The PBX can act as main
gateway to long distance networks for a variety of data
communications
As this private branch exchange is experimental type, and
dialing number is limited to a single digit, so some are to be
made before put to actual use in large public places/buildings
