Apart from the speed that UFB can offer, is there any other advantages over my existing VF cable?

 

If I did upgrade to UFB would my existing overhead cable have to be removed?

 

Note: I've been using naked broadband for a good few year (4+) now so I'm not worried about a phone line.

Less congestion (virtually none for me). Better routing. Probably better speeds and latency, and speeds will go up over time. It works in a power cut - just get a Sentry Lite DC UPS.
