PBX is indeed a digital phone line. More importantly, it ships
data to the handset, such as voicemail and call information. This
data coming back to the handset is additional power on the phone line
that can damage a computer modem. You may have a Centrex instead --
that would be your building being given a dedicated bank of numbers at
the local phone company. Both of these can look just like a
plain-old-telephone-system phone. You need to ask your phone company
people if it is safe to plug a modem into the phone line,
Thats not quite right. I manage a Mitel PBX that has the option for
both digital and analog lines. Generally I use the analog lines for FAX
machines, conference phones, and modems and digital lines for office phones.
Its important to note that they are not interchangeable.
In order for you to determine what you have is to contact your IT
department or your Tele-communications group on your campus.
