3.3.2. Functional Description
The Dialogic ® PBX Integration Board can connect to several different PBXs,
each of which has one or more compatible telephones with which it
communicates. The PBX Integration Board can emulate these telephones, which
have Feature Keys and LCD displays for accessing and employing advanced
features of the compatible PBXs.
Each of the four or eight line interfaces on Dialogic ® PBX Integration Boards can
receive voice and control data from the connected PBX. The voice data is
compressed by a DSP using one of the available encoding methods and then sent
to the host PC to be stored.
Control data from the PBX switch passes through the digital duplexer on the
Dialogic
® PBX Integration Board to a command processor, where it is converted
from its native format. The resulting serial bit stream is then converted into a
parallel bit stream that is sent via the local bus to the on-board control processor,
which either acts on the information or passes the event to the application (see
Figure 1 ).
