Need a Phone that will work below 32°

I have a client that needs a phone in their large freezer room. I cannot find any phone that will work under 32°.

We'd prefer VOIP but also fine with using an ATA if we need to. Any suggestions?

We typically use something analog from a vendor that manufactures devices for outdoor or other environments such as Gaitronics, Ramtel, Allentel, Talk-a-phone, or Ramtech or something. Not specifically in a freezer but outdoors in winter and such. 

 

Most electronics don’t seem to be rated below 32F even though they may “work” , due to probably some sort of testing and rating requirement. 

 

Getting into PoE heaters and things just seems to be pointless - save for “monitoring” though many of the analog phones have some ability to dial in and test if they are designed for call-out primarily.
