Have a look at DISA:

Excerpt:

DISA (Direct Inward System Access) Allows someone from outside the 
telephone switch (PBX) to obtain an "internal" system dialtone and to 
place calls from it as if they were placing a call from within the 
switch. A user calls a number that connects to the DISA application and 
is given dialtone and context.
