Your voip phones use ethernet. You just need network cabling and switches.

pstn connection depends on what you have for pstn lines.

Maybe somebody in pakistan can provide the consulting you need. Post on 
the -biz list for that. Spend a little money on a local asterisk guru 
before you spend a lot on hardware. I think 5 servers and about 200 
phones is a large deployment to be undertaking without the help of a 
good consultant.
