An apparatus (100) suitable for providing telecommunication and data services in a telecommunications network to a plurality of subscribers, comprising a first distribution matrix (104), a crossover matrix (108) and a second distribution matrix (106). Said crossover matrix (108) is adapted to be connected to a main cable (130) and to a distribution cable (120). The apparatus further comprises a DSLAM unit (112) and crossover switching elements in said crossover matrix (108) and distribution switching elements in said distribution matrices (104, 106) are controlled from a remote location. The apparatus is adapted to add data services to a subscriber line by switching the subscriber line from the crossover matrix (108) to the first distribution matrix (104) and then via splitter (110) to the second distribution matrix (106) and back to the crossover matrix (108), wherein the splitter (110) is adapted to receive data signal from the DSLAM unit (112).
