It is true that ISDN is mainly an European technology and you will find
public phone exchanges based on ISDN technology mainly in Europe. However,
any modern phone exchange for use in office environments supports an
internal ISDN bus, regardless wether the "uplink" to the public exchange
is analog, ISDN or VoIP.
