Putting two phone lines down one physical copper pair. It's done (if I
remember right) by digitising and multiplexing the signals. It works fine
for voice and fax (which is all BT is contracted to provide) but it is
death on comms above 28,800bps. But because it saves BT having to install
an extra pair, it is becoming quite common.
