An off-premises extension (OPX), sometimes also known as off-premises station (OPS), is an extension telephone at a location distant from its servicing private branch exchange (PBX). An off-line extension is generally used to provide employees with access to a company phone system while they are out of the office. OPXs are used in distributed environments, serving locations that are too far from the PBX to be served by on-premises wiring. An OPX uses a conditioned wire pair that is usually used only for voice applications, while for data, a pair usually needs to be unconditioned. An alarm circuit is an unconditioned pair. In Internet telephony, a VoIP VPN OPX may be implemented by connecting an extension over a virtual private networking connection, instead of connecting it directly to the local area network. As the VPN already appears virtually to be part of the local area network, the off-premises extension appears to the IP-PBX as if it were on-site. ==See also== *Foreign exchange service (telecommunications) *Hosted PBX 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Off-premises extension」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
