A '''telephone exchange''' or '''telephone switch''' is the system of electronic components which connect phone calls. Pensacola has had several exchange systems over the years.
==1880==
Pensacola's first telephone exchange was established by [[Southern Bell]] on the northeast corner of [[Government Street]] and [[Palafox]] (now the site of [[Seville Tower]]). It went operational on [[September 1]], [[1880]]. (This was a considerable development for the area, as the first commercial telephone exchange had only been established about two years earlier.) Unfortunately it was destroyed in the [[fire of 1880]] only a few months later.
