Upgrading your business phone system with Asterisk

Most medium to larger businesses use central PBX phone systems to save 
money on telephone lines. Over the last decade the business PBX has 
gradually evolved towards Voice over IP hardware and away from 
traditional digital phones. Proprietary VoIP PBX systems such as 
Panasonic, Cisco and Mitel are available but costly. This presentation 
will cover how companies can take advantage of open standards such as 
SIP and LDAP and software such as Asterisk to have an inexpensive PBX 
that has features of the large, expensive and proprietary systems. An 
Asterisk system will be demonstrated and used as a sample system for the 
presentation.
