Hi many thanks, so they will back feed it from the hub, back down the co-ax , to some master socket outside , which will then somehow activate the existing extensions which by definition must be virgin extensions already , as virgin would not use any existing bt extensions that may or may not have been in the property ?
Stop thinking about your phone service being a separate “line”. 21CV combines your phone traffic with your internet traffic (but using separate frequencies) through the coax to the local fibre node & thence back to the cable headend telephone exchange. In other words, all that is being replaced is the twisted pair copper wire between the master socket & the local fibre node. Inside the house your master socket will still feed all your extensions, but will be wired to your hub instead of the incoming twisted pair.
The second stage will be a full “digital switchover” when the entire service becomes VoIP based using internet servers instead of analogue exchanges.
