I would appreciate information on whether a 50-conductor phone cable,
presently serving a 1A2 system, would be appropriate for shared use as
the wiring of a LAN. Is one use likely to interfere with the other and
under what conditions (ringing affect LAN, LAN affect voice or modem
calls, etc.) and what could be done to eliminate or minimize these
effects. Performance limits on the LAN with such wiring are also of
interest.
