Packet loss

When data packets are transmitted over a computer network, "packet loss" refers to the loss of these packets. This can occur due to high network latency or an overload of switches or routers that are unable to process or route all incoming data.

PBX

A Private Branch Exchange, also known as a PABX or Private Automatic Branch Exchange, is a telephony system that works as a customer's premises through trunk lines. Initially, PBXs were like a small telephone company switchboard, where users would rely on an operator to handle incoming and outgoing calls with the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). However, users can now dial directly without an operator, and computer telephony platforms like automated attendants can also automatically route incoming calls.
