Technically, you'll have a SIAMESE cable (twinned) running from a Green Cabinet to a Box (OMNI) on an outside wall of your house. Essentially it's TWO cables stuck together, One COAXIAL and the other TELCO.
The INSTALL TECH will make a connection via a drilled hole from the box outside to where the customer wishes (WITHOUT CONTRAVENING HEALTH & SAFETY OF COURSE!) within the property.
The TELCO cable carries the phone signal and the COAX handles both the TV and BROADBAND, but must also be SPLIT (1in 2out) to feed a seperate SET TOP BOX (STB) and STAND ALONE CABLE MODEM (SACM).

Hope that clarifies STUFF 4 YER!
