Broken cable in networking box - unsure how to fix (UK) - eviltoast

One of the kids has accidentally snapped this cable bringing the WiFi down.

Could somebody tell me:

  1. What this cable is
  2. Who do I get to fix it? An electrician or is this beyond that?

Thanks!

    That cable shouldn’t affect your WiFi… But it would certainly affect your internet.

    Other than providing power to network equipment and computers, keep Mr Sparky away from any network cabling. Nothing good comes from and electrician doing any data cabling. Nothing. Ever.

    Just because nobody’s asked – how does one accidentally snap a cable in an enclosed box like that?
