I noticed that Toll Brothers now build new houses with 2 new
CAT5e lines as a standard. Why? Each CAT5e can support 4 pair
of phone lines.

I noticed that both jacks on the same outlet connect to the
same phone number in my friend's new house.



Are you asking for help for a problem or just why the builder would run 2
cat5 lines?



I am just requesting information.

I am in the process of finishing a basement. I am putting two CAT5e
jacks on each outlet. Voice jack to 66 block, and data jack to the
router.

Now this Toll Brother setup was different. Both of their CAT5e jacks
on each outlet are voice, with the same phone number. I am just
wondering what is the advantage of the setup. If that provide some
extra functionality, I might copycat it.
