Full fibre installation
So we have recently taken up Sky's full fibre 300 service with a change date of 3 June. Our current telephone line enters the property in our middle room, which is where we want the new glass connector to be located. In preparation for the changeover an open reach engineer has added a grey. Box to the rear of our terraced property, this is back to back with out tool shed ( a room without power) and about 10 meters from where the current telephone line enters the property. So will the sky engineer who is coming to comment out new full fibre connection be able to bridge that 10 meters gap?

If there's an external route for the fibre-optic pigtail to follow, yes, but they are typically reluctant to bring this through interior walls.
