Old house and new house different wall sockets

So, quite straightforward title.

My old house has this convoluted mess inside:

Old houseOld house2

But the new place has a wall socket like this (sample image, not exactly the one), Virgin confirmed to take all cables and plug in, but unaware of what's the best approach since there's two cables on the old with 2 power sockets?

    The old house has a powered line (the white plug with the green light) probably because the street cabinet is far away, and the signal needs a boost.  In the new house, just connect the single cable from the Hub to the wall socket and see if it works.
