Not totaly true. Lucent make the DSLMAX boxes. They simply take a fiber, or ethernet, or ATM line, and supply it to upwards 64 coper lines. My Apartment complex uses these boxes. They take a fiber link from the CO, and supply each apartment with DSL service. works quite well because the coper link is only about 50 feet.
