For a costumer I search a device what can be connect on a sip phone (mayby only a bell) what rings when the phone is ringing (so you can hear that over the whole garage are warehouse)

In the old fashion phone you can do that, but I haven't see it in the voip world.
Mayby some one can point on some product's

TBH doing it the "old way"

TBH doing it the "old way" still looks like the cheapest option unless such a thing as a "VOIP extension bell" exists and I have not yet seen one

Set the ATA up as another "extension", connect the tone caller/bell to its FXS port, then create a ring group with your SIP phones and the ATA extension (with the loud bell)

NB: depending on the ATA and the type of device you use (whether its an electronic caller or an actual mechanical bell) you may need a "REN booster" to make the ringing voltage/current sufficient to ring the bell.

The ATA connected to a

The ATA connected to a standard 'external ringer' would be pretty easy (and cheap) to put do.

Any thought to having Asterisk generate a sound out the sound card to an external speaker? Could double as an overhead announcement system too.
