In a PBX, the option of breaking in to an existing call. This is sig-
nalled acoustically by an attention tone.
Basic Rate Interface
Network component for connecting homogeneous networks. As op-
posed to a gateway, bridges operate at layer 2 of the OSI model,
are independent of higher-level protocols and transmit data packets
using MAC addresses. Data transmission is transparent, which
means the information contained in the data packets is not inter-
preted.
Broadcasts (data packages) are sent to all devices in a network in
order to exchange information. Generally, there is a certain address
(broadcast address) in the network that allows all devices to inter-
pret a message as a broadcast.
Brokering makes it possible to switch between two external or in-
ternal subscribers without the waiting subscriber being able to hear
the other conversation.

The external connections of larger PBXs can be grouped into
bundles. When an external call is initiated by the exchange code or
in the event of automatic external line access a bundle released for
this subscriber is used to establish the connection. If a subscriber
has authorisation for several bundles, the connection is established
using the first released bundle. If one bundle is occupied, the next
released bundle is used. If all the released bundles are occupied,
the subscriber hears the engaged tone.
A data transmission medium for use by all the devices connected to
a network. Data is forwarded over the entire bus and received by all
devices on the bus.
Call to engaged team subscriber. If one subscriber in a team has
taken the receiver off the hook or is on the telephone, you can de-
cide whether other calls are to be signalled for this team. The setting
for reaching a subscriber can be toggled between "Standard" and
"Busy On Busy". In the basic configuration, it is set to Standard. If
Busy on Busy is set for a team, other callers hear the engaged tone.
