Explanation
A 'Cold address' in cable terminology means cable infrastructure is physically present in the home but the service is disconnected - the customer is not currently active. This differs from a 'hot' address (active service) or a location where cable was never installed.
AI explanation
In cable/telecom terminology, a "cold address" refers to a location where cable service was previously connected but has since been disconnected — the wiring/drop exists but isn't currently active. This distinguishes it from a "hot address" (currently active service) or a location that was never wired at all.
