I'm familiar with BT exchanges due to my work. What's the difference between these and Virgin's? I'm assuming the VM copper telephone lines get converted to fibre in a street cabinet prior to reaching somewhere like Bromborough? Whereas with BT, it is in the exchange itself where it switches to fibre.
