If you're talking to the builder, there's a two-piece thingy that can be built into the wall. Mostly we see these flushed into the stucco on buildings here in S Cal. The one for cable is about 4" high. The one for phone is about 8" high.

A rectangular frame screws onto a couple of studs, horizontally. After stucco and paint, the lid is put on and held in place with two screws. They're all of maybe five or ten bucks. Thing is, I can't figure out what they're called and Home Depot has no idea what they are.

Anyway, they use the space between studs as a place for terminations to go. There's not really a lot of room, but hey, they're cheap and they're out of the rain.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
