We have about 150 phones.

For fax and a credit card machine we had our ShoreTel tech use the existing phone lines. They took the lines as they ran into the old PBX and run them instead to a switch. They then take the lines from the switch and run them into their ShoreTel switch which makes it function as if it a phone and sends the data back out the Bell lines like normal.
I know that is kind of an odd description but it is hard to explain. Basically the faxes plug into the same phone ports on the wall and the lines are run to the ShoreTel hardware to communicate with the outside world.
