[asterisk-users] Asterisk to PBX

[logan]

Thanks Paul. Your help is much appreciated here.

Surely, Asterisk does that well, but Asterisk needs to have multiple phone 
lines for that. I thought that a traditional switchboard made that happen 
without multiple phone lines.

BTW, in Asterisk terminology a phone line means different PSTN connections 
to the operator, right?

Yeah, that's fine, but even 16 phone lines don't mean you can have 16 desk 
phones only or 16 simultaneous calls?

Thanks I will take a look at asteriskdocs.
