Uh - uh. A PBX phone system is digital and it sends voice information in data packets to the individual phones. You can’t wiretap it. If you want to infiltrate it, you have to get into the server and program it to redirect certain calls to another line so that you can translate the information to voice and then listen to it.

Well actually you could have the trunks or extensions appear on another phone as well, but that would involve having a complimentary phone and programing the phone into the system via the administration software. Not something that a layman could do rather easily, particularly without knowing the aministrators password. And then you would have to be within a couple hundred feet of the phone system with a wired or system compatible wireless phone.
