Abstract
In this study we revisit the telephone exchange problem. We discuss a generalization of the telephone exchange problem by discuss two generalizations of the Bessel polynomials. We study combinatorial properties of these polynomials, and show how the numbers are related to the well known Whitney numbers and Dowling numbers
