It is often useful to know the terminology that Openreach use to describe the parts of the wiring between the exchange and the premises.


This diagram shows some of this, including:
*E-Side (Cable from Exchange to the Cabinet)
*D-Dide (Cable from the Cabinet to the Distribution point, which may be in the building or on a pole in some cases)

*DP = Distribution Point
*PCP = Primary Cross-Connection Point
*SCP = Secondary Cross-Connection Point

FTTP uses similar language, [https://media.ccc.de/v/emf2024-305-the-last-miles-of-the-internet James Harrison provided an excellent talk at EMF2024]
