More then likely he used 4 conductor (two pair) cable and meant 2 lines (phone numbers) per cable. They will need to be broke out to separate jacks.

Definitely one line per FXO port, but the wording of the original poster
was two numbers, not two lines, and while it may not be universally
true, "distinctive ring" should allow two (or more) phone numbers to be
present on an FXO port, and asterisk should be able to tell which one is
calling.

If the original poster did mean lines and not numbers, maybe there was
some confusion about the difference between PSTN and ISDN.

In a word...No.

One line per FXO port.

Next question?

I am currently having our new office wired up with 8 PSTN lines. The
guy
asked me if he could wire it up such that one line had two phone
numbers.
I bought a Sangoma A200 with 8 FXO ports, but now I'm wondering if all
I
needed were 4 FXO ports. Is it possible to set up Asterisk with 2
numbers
per FXO?

Thanks for any help,

Andrew
