Hi,
Need to do a presentation and was wondering how many street cabinets there were. I know there are about five and half thousand telephone exchanges but how does this equate to the amount of green cabinets there are?
Approximate is fine.
And thanks in advance.

Around 94,000 and the number is growing as exchange only cabinets gain fibre cabinets and new green cabinets.

Openreach, or Openreach plus Virgin Media Cable? Just telecoms or what - e.g. traffic light controllers?
In the case of Openreach, the number of phone cabinets, or the number of FTTC cabinets attached to them, or the sum of the two? A lot of phone cabinets don't have FTTC partners.
The indispensable man or woman passes from the scene, and what happens next is more or less the same thing as was happening before.

Openreach was the scope of the question, sorry I did not make that clear.
Interesting though, what is the amount if you include non-OR presence?
Additionally, thanks for the response

Are you expecting the response to include the cabinets installed to provide FTTC?

No, just the sum of cabinets. I am fine with the figure of 94k for now, the point is that there are 94k exchanges and only 25k or so engineers as far as the presentation is concerned.
I believe FTTC is about 65%, by the way

presentation for what and to whom ?

No, just the sum of cabinets. I am fine with the figure of 94k for now, the point is that there are 94k exchanges and only 25k or so engineers as far as the presentation is concerned. No there are 94K Cabinets and around 5,510 Exchanges.

And if I remember correctly, there are about 25,000 vehicles - not sure whether that is OR only or BT total.

There are more PCP sites nowadays, mostly because of the need to support EO lines. So far, these have followed the model of having a standalone PCP with a new FTTC partner.
We're also starting to see extra PCPs as they are added to cope with lines that are too long for the existing FTTC deployment. These are typically the "all in one" style.
BT's latest report on the number of FTTC cabinets is 72,000, as of January. They're increasing at a rate of around 200 per week.

Live FTTC/FTTP is around 74,500 currently. The P areas not having the fibre twin, but kit in a hole or on a pole.
