The most extreme break-the-rules installation that I know of connected a basement computer room to an 11th floor office complex, apx. 25 lines' worth, with an apx. 1500 foot run: from basement, under a street, and up an elevator shaft before fanning out across a dropped ceiling to individual offices. Used with success, most lines at 9600 baud, for 10 years before being replaced with an ethernet configuration. greg pavlov, fstrf, amherst, ny
