Weather Resistant Phone for CS1000? 1

[ktludwig]

Does anyone know if there is a Nortel makes a digital set that is weather resistant for use outdoors? I have a customer that would like to put a phone at the entrance of their building that could be used to dial internal extension for when the receptionist is not at the front desk.

Thanks for your help!

Doesn't need to be Nortel, there are multi Analog outdoor sets, google it. Then you can just build a 500 set.

Unfortunately the system does not have any analog station cards in it-only digital.

I'd go for an enclosure if you simply can't add an analog card.

How do they fax? No modems either?

You can get an analogue card for like 100 bucks or less these days.

All faxes are just POTS lines.

An option to consider is a weather resistant doorphone. Algo offer two analog doorphones including a trunk or station port solution. If desired, either doorphone can be configured to interface with an electronic latch to open a door from a telephone.

Both Guardian and Code Blue sell weather resistant analog sets.

How about a simple Nortel door phone apparatus directed at a trunk port and send ringing notification to a page group...

Press the button at the door, send ring tone over paging system, anyone with access to a predetermined line in a pickup group with the door phone can answer. Done it several times on smaller systems.

I have a enclosure I purchased fron Anixter and just placed a trim line phone in it. But you could place any type of digital set you want.
