We've been working on reducing the number of telephone lines offered in
student rooms for the past couple of years, but are finally to the point
where we get to start phasing them out completely. This will be a
multi-year process as the income from our lines is linked into the financing
plan for our fancy VoIP system.
It's been decided that there will be some courtesy phones in each building
so there is something available in an emergency. Now we need to come up
with the best solution to install. I am hoping that some folks may be able
to share what they are doing.
Here are some of our options:
- Go back to the good old days of cheap analog phones on the wall that we
can easily replace if they get damaged.
- Install VoIP phones similar to what we have in offices.
- Use some sort of hardened phone with emergency button, similar to what
we have outside front doors.
- Something else?
Also, how many of these do you think is "enough"? One per building? One per
lounge? Per floor?
Thanks!
