A method for providing Digital Subscriber Line service to a group of subscribers over respective subscriber loops in the presence of another, existing digital network service provided on at least some of the subscriber loops. In a conductor pattern CPA and a conductor pattern CPB arranged so as to run side by side with each other, the conductor pattern CPA is divided into a first portion P1 and a second portion P2, and the conductor pattern CPB is also divided into a first portion P1 and a second portion P2. Sliding movement of the workslides and cross slides is produced by ball screws powered by servo motors and mounted on bearing housings, with the ball screws propelling ball nuts connected to the slides. The first geometry is compressible and dryable to a second geometry smaller than the first geometry, and the second geometry is expandable and rehydratable to a third geometry larger than the second geometry. The body may have a substantially triangular shape in transverse cross-section.
