Is this a G.Fast pod or an FTTC expansion pod?


[link to this post]
 
So I noted an extra pod on the side of my cabinet. Nothing has changed on the checker yet, but this hasn't been there more than a few weeks.

It's attached to the PCP itself, not the fibre twin (which is visible in one of the photos). I'd assume an FTTC expansion pod would be on the FTTC cabinet, not the PCP itself, which might point to this one being G.Fast?

No sounds from it right now.

For background, this is Ipswich cabinet 10. Some other cabs on the exchange have G.Fast, but ours hasn't had up to now. Our area has VM anyway, but the FTTC cab does flit between available and waiting list (I get emails when the checker updates).

Thanks!

It seems like the summary is "there is no way to tell"!

Oh well....

You have to wait for Witchunt to respond as he is the only one that can tell unless someone opens the pod up!

Just believe his answer when/(if) it arrives.
