Hi Team
I am having Virginmedia including TV 360 and TV mini box installed at the earliest date available, which is in December.
The TV mini box will be in an extension, that is currently being built. I am keen to supply an Ethernet point and a coaxial point to these locations, from the proposed hub location, prior to the plasterboard being fitted. This will be before my installation date.
The Ethernet cable selection is fairly easy, but I am unsure on what to do re the coaxial cable. Will Virgin supply me their specific coaxial cable prior to their installation date, if so how, or can I just use a good quality coaxial such has Webro HD100 Ultra Coaxial?
Thanks for your help Derek

Usual suggestion on here, for first fix during a construction project, is to install some conduit with a pull rope in it while building.
Let the VM tech pull through some VM cable, along with the ethernet cable, during the VM installation.

Hello Derek16.
Thanks for your post and welcome to our community.
From what @goslow has advised already this would be the best solution to pre cable your property ready for the additional 360 mini box.
There may be a chance we could arrange for an engineer to drop off the cable prior to the installation.
It's probably the best option in case any problems arise on the actual day of installation.
What I'll do is send you a private message to take some details, if that's okay with you.
