I agree that staying with analog telephone is better solution, unfortunately our current phone infrastructure is heading the directions of full VoIP everywhere and the POT lines are being removed (deemed too expensive to maintain by management). All our fax is now cloud based or will soon be cloud based. Hence, I am tasked with looking for alternatives.

There's just too much not under control in my mind (RF, mainly). You've already got cable and power there, why not stick with the wired solution?

Ideally, I am looking for a wireless (Wi-Fi based) outdoor emergency VoIP phone to replace our very old landline based outdoor phones. My initial research has not produced any good candidates yet as well I was wondering if anyone has had successfully deployed such a system at their location? Any feedback would be very much appreciated. We use Aruba APs and Cisco Call Manager in our network.
