Depending on the wiring configuration used at the customer’s site,
separate wall jacks may be used for telephone and VDSL services.
Otherwise, you will need to connect the telephone and computer directly
to a CPE similar to that shown below. For detailed information on
installing and operating the CPE, refer to the relevant user guide.
