I remember the first time I saw a digital 1 pair telephone. ROLM was trying to sell a system to a large college whith multiple buildings and old BELL cables that were bridge tapped all over the place. We tried to tell the customer that he would have to recable the campus or dut out the bridge taps but the ROLM salesman got really upset with us. We recommended he get an engineer in on the project. The engineer traveled 3 hours for another meeting with the customer and when he found out the cables were all bridged he blessed the salesman out right in front of all of us and walked out.
