In our area Virgin Media have been upgrading for FTTP.
While they have been doing these yellow boxes (I have attached a pic) have appeared. Looking at them it look like easy access to cables
.
So just bring nosey… does anyone know what they are and called?
Thanks in advance

From a previous topic, IIRC, I think it is a temporary cover over the hole before a cabinet is fitted.

A few weeks ago Community fibre dug a hole etc and then left that yellow thing roof on top near me (now a full on cabinet is there). Cannot say if the yellow roof is standard or could change with different providers?

It is said that Virgin Media is where customer service came to die, and that looks very coffinish to me. Maybe you could lay some flowers on top to complete the look?
