The spanish solution sounds rather like fibre to the cabinet, with voice cards fitted to the cabinet?

It is fibre to the sitting room, to the router, or to a little box before it called "ONT". Either the ONT or the router have copper pair out, thus it is VoIP to the router, POTS out of it.

Is your sitting room a mile long then :-) or was it someone else who mentioned "last mile"?

Somebody else.
Here Telefónica delivers fibre to to the sitting room router. If that is not feasible, it is radio.
However, Vodafone does not, they do fibre to the block, then coax to the home (two coax, I think, one for internet and tv, another for phone. Unsure). They may use other technologies too.
