This often depends on if you are getting other services.  If a customer is
getting no other services other than CHSI, it tech must do it all.  Or if
the existing drop does not meet SOP.  Sometimes a tech will do a
Multi-product install, meaning more than one cox service.  I myself have
done several of these, including all three major services (Digital Cable,
Digital Phone, CHSI).

Often times there is more than one tech scheduled out to do an install, but
many times, a broadband tech is doing both cable and internet.
