Big boss ,you don't know how happy I am to see you wiring this system . I really want to get into it ...How do you change the 3 incoming lines from the source to the 8 hybrides system? Some people only have 2 lines and they make it into a phone system. can you explain to me how that work?

@egbigan they just connect into the PBX. This particular PBX supports 8 lines, so you can use anywhere from 0-8 lines, more with an expansion card.

Nice video =) I am looking to install a PBX style system in my Parents' office, because its an older building, the telephone jacks are not wired in a star topology manner is it not possible to install the system without re wiring?

@gswimfrk:

It depends on what kind of phones were in use in the old system and whether or not you have enough pairs available in the old wiring to run a separate pair to each location (extension) you wish to have a phone located...

With a PBX system it would be better to rewire with home runs from each phone extension outlet back to the PBX punch down block in the wiring/utility closet so that the age of the wiring and the likely multiple connections aren't an issue you have to deal with...
