I run 2 (analogue) telephone extensions over the same piece of CAT5.
Works fine for conventional phone calls - not so great for data.
Ringing on one extension can bleed through into the audio path of the
other (i.e. if one person is on the phone, and the other extension
rings, the ringing can sometimes be faintly heard on the first
extension). Otherwise crosstalk is not a problem for non-data use.
