Steve,
I just came across and used a product called an Ethernet extender - I
needed 600ft. and it claims to do upto 6000 ft.It works very well at my
client site and I believe it can do a single voice line as well. It only
needs 1 pair telephone wiring or better. Cost all in was about CDN$400.
Take a look here:

Hello All,
Does anyone know the length you can run a FXS extension on copper cable
pair (24 AWG)?
I'm replacing a Nortel legacy PBX with an Asterisk server. Most of the
lines are IP, but some of the extensions are outdoors in different
buildings, up to 1500ft. If possible I would like to use an external
analogue adapter for these extensions.
I've check the techinal specs on the Grandstream GXW-4008 8-port FXS,
and it lists a specification (REN 3 - Up to 150ft Short and Long Haul).
I've tried to dig around on the net for information on max cable runs
and "Short and Long Haul", but haven't been able to find much.
Could something like a SPA-2100 work, or a TDM400 card with FXS ports?
Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Regards,
Steven
