Cable Forum - View Single Post - what cable do Virgin Media use from outside to the modem inside

Hmmm ... I think it would depend on how well the job appears to have been done and what cable has been used. There are a couple of people on this forum who are in the know about these sorts of things - keep an eye on this thread for a while, hopefully one of them will be along soon enough with some good advice.

I would say that the safest scenario is if you can somehow install cable runs rather than the cables themselves, so the VM install tech can pull his own cable through. That may not be practical for you though, and if you can get away with it, pre-wiring done by a professional with the appropriate grade of cable is going to be best for you.
