1.2. Explanation of Terminology
CO (External, Public) Line
CO lines are public telephone network lines that are connected to your 2N OMEGA
48 PBX as inputs. They are used for outgoing (external) calls, i.e. calls outside your
company. These lines include either the Telecom lines, GSM lines, or also your
private lines.
External (CO Line) Subscriber
Any external subscriber worldwide that calls or is called by your PBX using a CO
line.
Internal Subscriber
Any subscriber inside your company connected to the 2N OMEGA 48 PBX. Internal
PBX calls are free of charge.
Private Network
A telephone network owned by one subject and used for telephone interconnection
of his branches and their subscribers. From the viewpoint of the 2N OMEGA 48
PBX, there is no difference between private and public telephone networks are
identical.
Private Subscriber
Any external private telephone network subscriber.
Tone and Pulse Dialing, Tone and Pulse Telephone Sets
Two types of telephone sets are used in many countries - the older pulse telephone
sets and advanced tone telephone sets (which are usually able to use pulse dialing
too, the dialing mode is selected by a switch). The 2N OMEGA 48 PBX works with
both the types of telephone sets without problems, but pulse telephone sets offer
lower comfort. Since services are different in each type of telephone sets, make sure
which of the telephone sets you are using currently. We recommend to use tone
dialing telephone sets for better comfort.
Trunk
A group (cluster) of CO lines, for one department of your company, for example.
Voice Mail and Fax Server
PC-based software that gives each internal 2N OMEGA 48 subscriber a comfortable
answering and recording machine and fax „of its own“. For illustration see the
invitation card below where the 2N OMEGA 48 PBX is able to distinguish
answering/recording machine and fax calls automatically.
