Mobile PBX (or hosted MBX) is a new managed hosted PBX service that extends traditional fixed line PBX telephone system functionality to mobile devices such as mobiles telephones, smart phones and PDA devices by provisioning them for use as handset extensions. Mobile PBX services also can include fixed line phones.
Mobile PBX systems are different from other hosted PBX systems in that they simply forward data or calls to mobile phones by allowing the mobile phone itself, through the use of buttons, keys and other input devices, to control the PBX phone functions (such as transfer, hold etc) and to allow users to manage communications without having to call into the telephone system itself first.
Mobile PBX telephone solutions are often priced on a subscription basis per user per month and are relatively easy to set up due to limited amount of hardware needed.

BT Global Services are to begin on-trials of OnRelay's Hosted MBX services
OnRelay have announced recently that they have entered into a customer agreement with BT Global Services that will involve a number of UK-based and multinational customers trialing hosted MBX technology as part of BT's Unified Communications offering.
The OnRelay MBX solution will enable companies to replace some, or all, of their IP desk phones with mobile phones by delivering all of the functionality of the customer's existing communication system (PBX) to the mobile phone itself.
On completion of the trials, it is expected that the OnRelay solution will join the successful BT Corporate Fusion portfolio.
"The customer trials of OnRelay's cellular FMC solution reflect BT's ongoing commitment to addressing the demand for global fixed mobile convergence technologies, recognising that one size doesn't fit all" comments Malcolm Pilcher, Head of Voice CPE & FMC, BT Global Services. "We see this demand accelerating as our customers look to maximise their existing infrastructure, improve employee productivity and continue their drive to manage and control costs."
"With this joint announcement, OnRelay and BT Global Services open new customer opportunities for cellular FMC," said OnRelay CEO, Ivar Plahte. "BT's evaluation further validates OnRelay's focus on enabling enterprises to cost-effectively extend Unified Communications to mobile phones. 2009 will be the year of cellular FMC."
The days of hardware telephony sales are numbered says GoHello!. Instead, mobile phones and hosted telephony (in other terms a Mobile PBX) are what small and medium sized enterprises really need and want, claims the firm's CEO.
OnRelay has made its Hosted MBX product suite generally available. Hosted MBX is a network independent software system that enables operators to offer a complete hosted office communication system with mobile phones instead of desk phones.
