 PHONE SWITCH Definition
We define PHONE SWITCH |
PHONE SWITCH - These are generally large cabinets with groups of phone port cards plugged into them. On one end the cards connect to the phone company via T1 or larger line; on the other end they usually connect to a punch-down block on the wall, which is in turn connected to groups of ports at people's desks. Thus, people can plug phones into these ports and be connected to the phone company. The phone switch manages the connections between you and the outside world. Many offices have their own dedicated switches that they can maintain and control (within certain guidelines). In residential areas the phone company controls the switches. |
