I'm looking for a ringer which can be connected to three or more phone
lines, providing distinctive ringing for each.

One could track down separate ringers which sound sufficiently
different (any pointers on sources? many sound alike), but a single
unit would make for a neater and more compact installation, and its
rings might be more easily distinguished.

Does such a device exist?

P.S. What's the most tidy way to wire up three-line switching in a
residential installation?  Should I buy one of those five-button
switches with a modular plug on one side and a 25-pair plug on the
other?
