Default NIC Phone Box: Right Hand Side For "Customer Side" ?

Yes, the one with the actual wires to your individual phones.


Most new, residential construction these days is done with a dedicated 4-pair
for each outlet in the home and extended to a common area, usually near the
furnace. The same is done with prewired coax.

Then, a SINGLE cable is run from that bundle out to the SNID or CATV box on
the outside of the premise.

If adding a "leg" to this "hub"-type of network (phone or TV), it is
preferable to begin at the bundle rather than the box on the outside of the
house.
