The one in Leeds (as was Jones Cable, Bell CableMedia, C&W Comms, NTL, and now presumably VirginMedia) was just in the same room as the servers (DEC Alphas and WinTel, mainly), just like a big server room full of cabs and cables (in '94, we had to switch our mobile phones off if we went into the room).
