I have to extend a DSL Dry Loop 150 feet from the Demarcation Point in 35 different locations. Most sites the service is comming into the building on 200- 300 pair pic cable and terminated on old telephone equipment. My question to you is what type of cable would you use to extend service to the modem 150 away? I have decided to use Quad telephone wire up to the modem and everything past the modem will be cat5e for the Lan. Some have already been extended with cat5e.! https://whatismyipaddress.com/speed-test might try both and test wich is best  :read: https://www.contact-directconnect.com

You should have enough headroom to run it on any quality of cable.
I have never ran into an issue where 200ft was enough to kill the target speed + buffer. And I work with VDSL all the time. A DSL shouldn't have an issue with 200 feet added to it.
And, I assume he meant a total of 35 circuits.

Regardless of what he meant by "extentions" (extensions), I get the impression that the DSL circuit needs to be extended to the DSL modem, and yes, even traditional quad wire will suffice for this part. Anything beyond the modem (and switch/hub) should be CAT5e or better per industry standards.
Festec, remember that DSL travels for tens of thousands of feet over 'category zero' outside plant cable. A few hundred more feet won't matter between the MPOP and the modem. Twisted pair or not, the signal just rides along the pair, basically using it as a virtual antenna.

If you're really a gambler, you can use a half-pair for each circuit. The DSL signal will work fine on one conductor.

You can get away with simple CAT3 for this application.
