Validating PSTN expansion via VOIP

Hi

I'd like to validate a configuration, I'm 100% newbie and do not want to

do a mistake but want to learn.

Our phone lines in the house are now provided by the cable

company. They install 2 boxes in the house that provide 2 phones lines,

one fax line and also a line for modem (credit card payment)

After switching to cable company, we kept our old analog phone setup

in the house (PSTN).

Now we are moving our operation 1000 feet away from the house. The

contractor did a trench to run a fiber cable (network) between our

current house and the new location. We ask to run phone cable but he

didn't do it.

I believe that using VOIP over the fiber network would be cheaper

than redoing the dig and running cables.

We would like to achieve the following.

The garage will be a phone extension of our house system.

Phone in the garage will use the existing analog cabling,  no IP phone.

We would like to have the 2 phones ringing at both location

We would like to call with those phones from both location

We would like to receive and send fax from the garage.

We would like use our credit card machine(modem) in the garage.

The network between the house is an extension of our home network.

There will be no router.

It will use the same subnet

I was wondering if 2 SPA8800 IP Telephony Gateway box,  one in each

end would do the job for our project. By looking at the diagram,

it seem to do what we are looking for.

I'm open to other solution

Thank for any input on this.
