Verizon FiOS to house

How does Verizon FiOS transmit to
the house - what is received at house, modem?
I have heard that Verizon sends the analog TV signals
AND 1 digital TV signal (your selection) and 1 telephone (VoIP)
and 1 high speed internet. How is that all decoded at the house?
What happens when converting FiOS to ethernet at the
house?

If you are interested in FIOS TV, ask up front if they can deliver in your area. I wouldn't believe anything they say about the future. Also, they tear out all the copper infrastructrure. It's a one-way trip unless you pay to reinstall the copper, should you want to.
Others will describe the interfaces better than I can.

It is not available here (for at least 2 years) but I am interested in understanding the interfaces.

The FIOS that a Verizon sales rep sold my predicesor at a small biz consisted of a box on the wall with 4 POTS RJ11 jacks and an RJ45 ethernet interface. I didn't look for a video interface.

The video was probably an rg59 (coax) plug carrying at least analog RF.
The 4 POTS may mean you cannot hook up to your house phone wiring because each POT may have an REN of 1 (not 3 or more of a real POTS).
