The VDSL modems have to sit at opposite ends of a single wire pair, and the signal is split off the pair before you run it on to the PBX or telephones or whatever. This means that you must control this wire end to end. It's not like you can add one here and to another telephone and simply call the other telephone to set up the connection. The signal will not be propogated by any other telco equipment.
