PLANNING THE SYSTEM

Start with the Number of Lines and Extensions

01 How Many External Lines?

Consider how many incoming or outgoing telephone lines the office uses.

02 How Many Extensions?

Count the staff, rooms or departments that require office phones.

03 How Should Calls Be Routed?

Decide whether calls should go to reception, departments or selected extensions.

04 Existing or New Cabling?

Existing telephone or network infrastructure should be reviewed before installation.

A good PABX layout follows how calls actually move through the office. Plan the external lines, extensions and call-routing requirements first, then select the system around the office workflow.
