Each "port" or connection to the telephone system, has 2 channels or speech paths. Nortel confused the issue a few years ago and started call channels ports in order remain consistant with industry terminology. As an example the Flash 2 voice mail is called 2 port system but in reality it is 1 port (2 channels). So it depends on who you talk to. Rule of thumb one connection = two channels or as you call them accesses.
