About the hardware required, you need a telephony card if you want to
connect the PBX to a phone network. Visit http://www.digium.com/ and
have a look.

I recomend to check out the PDF located in
http://sourceforge.net/projects/asterisk/

I you want something deep theory, perhaps this link can help you
http://www.ericsson.com/support/telecom/index.shtml, or read a good
telecommunications book (look for it at amazon): Telecommunications
Essentials
by Lillian Goleniewski is a good one...

I hope this help
