It is installed in the NID (phone box outside the house where the telco's wiring interfaces with the house wiring) and filters all the inside phone wiring from DSL interference.  It's usually used along with a 'home run' from the NID to the DSL modem.

I installed a single line filter in the NID when I got DSL. The phone 
side is spliced back into the original nest of wires and the DSL side 
goes to a spare pair in the IW feeding the room where the DSL modem 
lives. It has worked perfectly.

What is different about a "whole house" filter?  Sounds like a rip off 
to me.
