Is this my Virgin Media socket?

Hi folks,

I've ordered Virgin Media broadband today, the Quickstart pack is being delivered next week.  I'm trying to find my VM socket and the only likely suspect I can find is this combo thing, is one of these likely to be a cable connection?  The Sat/Sat 2 connections are for satellite TV (I use them for Freesat), the connections marked TV and Radio are presumably the antennas for those services, but could the unmarked coax connector on the right be VM?

I've searched all round the flat for anything else, cables sneaking out of walls or blanking plates or anything and I've had no luck.

Thanks in advance :)

    That just looks like some distributed system in flats, and you do say you live in a flat. Anyone else in the flats have Virgin TV, if not then you might need permission from your landlord if it's rented to have it installed, also if virgin don't have a centrally streamed system through the flats, (not sure if they do that), an installation might depend on how high your flat is.

    See what other people say.

      Thanks.  Now it's light I've had a look outside and I can see the brown Virgin Media boxes and cables going to all the other flats but can't find one going to mine!  Engineer visit booked.
