I had the same problem in a welding lab. I did this on a 3Com NBX, but I'm sure that the same idea would apply to Asterisk: I went to RadioShack, and bought one of their "visual ringers", for the hearing impaired (basically flashes a white strobe light, and sounds a really loud ringer), and attached it to an ATA adapter. Then I created a flat call group, and reassigned its number to what the single phone's extension used to be. That way, whenever anyone would dial that extension, the strobe would activate and the louder ringer would sound, in addition to the telephone.

I have put a pbx into a resort with Polyycom phones, everythign works great, except the kitchen staff cannot hear the phone ring. I know many legacy systems employ a big red flashing light, any ideas on doing something similar?
