The Phillips Group (Potomac, MD; www.thephillipsgroup.net) reports that the corporate phone system market -- or Private Branch Exchange (PBX) market-- has declined for the first time since 1993. Shipments of corporate phone systems in the second quarter of 2000 dropped 16.2 % from the same period in 1999. Because of the pending shift to IP Telephony, end-users are reluctant to invest in traditional PBXs that may not offer this functionality.
