These Infinity cabinets are only cross connected to primary splice cabinets. Some street cabinets on BT's network can act as an extension to a primary cabinet so wont have the need for a VDSL cabinet. BT are generally only fitting these new cabinets in areas where there is a high penetration of customers, not every cabinets in a connected exchange area will receive service.

I have family living next to a VDSL cabinet but also very close to the exchange. Their phone line is directly connected to the exchange and not to the street cabinet so they cannot get infinity... some great Telecomms planning that!

Each cabinet has a mutipair blown fibre trunk connected back to the headend and are fed by a single fibre. The blown fibre duct allows for more fibre to connected in future as the technology changes and demand increases.
