In metallic conduits, none. In non-metallic conduits, little.
Modern data lines are almost immune to 60 Hz interference.

For 60Hz and modern, in the sense of Ethernet, they should be close completely immune. A voltage induced on D+ will also be induced on D-, and the difference will remain constant. If there is going to be a problem it will be on non-differential lines, like RS-232, and not differential lines, like Ethernet, RS-485, RS-422, etc.
In the OP's case, the question should be if this is VoIP or regular telco.

Lol " lessor separation may be used when the parties concur"
. We should have concurred!Maybe we can sneak a change into the NEC that says, "an NEC code may be skipped if all parties think it is dumb."
