TV boxes and multi room setup query

Hi there

So i have my broadband with VM and TV through Sky but prices are silly now and I can get both with VM for about half price.

My question is, with sky i have two multi room boxes that work via WiFi, no cables required. How do the virgin media boxes work? Do they need a cable or are they wireless these days. Haven't had Virgin TV in about 8yrs 

Thanks

      If you are in an HFC or RFoG (co-ax) then the TV boxes will need co-ax for full functionality. If you are in a Nexfibre XGS-PON area, the streaming TV boxes are WiFi or Ethernet.
