Hi. I have virgin 360 installed in a new build(3 year old) downstairs and everything OK.... Upstairs on bedroom wall next to electric socket I have a blank VM plate... Behind plate is a black cable. Would anyone have any idea as to what this is for?

Hi, it would probably run to a utility cupboard where a splitter could be fitted to feed another TV in the bedroom

Have a look at VM's new build handbook

https://www.virginmedia.com/content/dam/virginmedia/dotcom/images/shop/downloads/New-Build-Handbook-...

which shows examples of how they can wire up new build houses (page 19 onwards). You might be able to match some of the example layouts to your own home. Cables may be pre-wired (but not actually connected to sockets) so you can easily add services to new rooms without pulling the house apart to install new wires!

Hi, thanks for your reply... Have found aerial splitter downstairs next to plugs and virgin fittings, will investigate further tomorrow
