Hopefully one not used for telephone lines!
Actually, you can shove line-level audio down phone cable quite well
provided that it's twisted-pair and you get the pairs right.
You can with video as well. ;-)
Ordinary telephone pair was used for distributing the signal to radio
transmitters for years before digital came along, and a carefully
equalised line was capable of giving excellent results over many, many
miles.
I use telephone cable in my place to distribute audio - I've got 10
circuits in one cable, non of them screened, and the results are
excellent. But it's a balanced system.
