PBX Private Branch eXchange Explanation: An inhouse telephone switching system that interconnects telephone extensions to each other as well as to the outside telephone network (PSTN). A PBX enables a single-line telephone set to gain access to one of a group of pooled (shared) trunks by dialing an 8 or 9 prefix. PBXs also include functions such as least cost routing for outside calls, call forwarding, conference calling and call accounting. Modern PBXs use all-digital methods for switching, but may support both analog and digital telephones and telephone lines. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 35 perc (2008-07-28 07:21:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- There are several other references on the that all prove the trustworthiness of my answer,I have even prepared a longish list of URLs,but my computer crashed and I was unable to save it.So please type the expression PBX into Google,and you will get millions of Google hits.

from pbx to cable plant a separate, circuit-based network Explanation: 其实整句话可以变换一下形式: “it saves on the costs of building a separate, circuit-based network alongside the data network - from PBX to cable plant (wiring)”——> “it saves on the costs of building a separate, circuit-based network from PBX to cable plant (wiring) alongside the data network”. 无非是不必再建一个与数据网络并行的网络,当然省钱了。 |

from pbx to cable plant 修饰data network Explanation: 在it saves on the costs of building a separate, circuit-based network alongside the data network from PBX to cable plant这个句子里,of building a separate, circuit-based network alongside the data network from PBX to cable plant是修饰costs的。这个of 短语是介词加动名词构成。 在动名词短语building a separate, circuit-based network alongside the data network from PBX to cable plant里,a separate, circuit-based network 是动词build的宾语,而alongside the data network from PBX to cable plant这个介词短语是动词build的地点状语,表示在哪里建立一个单独的、基于电路的网络。 在alongside the data network from PBX to cable plant这个介词短语里, from PBX to cable plant这个介词短语做后置修饰语修饰 data network 。 |
