Full Fibre equipment.

Hi. Wonder if anyone can help. I'm having full fibre broadband fitted and was expecting a parcel but all I received was a envelope with a wire in. Is that all I have to have delivered. Will the engineer bring everything else needed. Thanks

Yes: that's the grandiosely named 'conversion kit' and enables a Sky Broadband Hub or Max Hub to connect with the Optical Network Terminal which the engineer will bring and install.

@Tony249 No that's it, will convert your existing sky Hub from the DSL port - Master Phone socket to the WAN connection and the new ONT for Fibre that will be fitted inside your home!

Use your time wisely now think were you need want the ONT to be installed, where your current hub is to what can go wrong if/when your hub get's put in the wrong position. Also take a look at the OR Install day video search to see that on google!

Oh wow, was expecting a box with a bit more in than that. Even managed to get it through the letter box. Thanks for your help.

As long as you already have a Sky Broadband Hub, it's all that is required.

@Nickcox2727 It's a standard cat 5e ethernet cable. You can buy a 10m one easily enough.
