However most cable runs, including mine as noted above, will have at least one cabinet along the route. Openreach then usually build a powered fibre cabinet nearby and "loop in" to enable FTTC on individual lines as they are ordered.
I have a line like this in one of our offices, I get 18mbs down and 2.5mbs up on Annex-M on a direct exchange line that is <150m, but no chance of FTTC as there is no cab. Also no FTTP yet, so I am now having to go to Virgin Media Business to get a speed hike, which is not really this biggest issue but not ideal either!
