If you connect a generic hub to the DSL modem, you can connect up to 5 interfaces using the static IP addresses. If you wish to utilize multiple IP addresses on a single interface then you can either use IP aliases or Proxy ARP. The DSL modem doesn't really care, SBC is just configuring it to bridge your network to theirs over the specified subnet range so how you use the /29 subnet is totally up to you and what your OS supports.
