Distance from exchange will not come into if you can or can not get FTTC, distance to your cabinet (or rather the new fibre one they put in when it arrives in your area) will dictate if and what speed you will get from FTTC.

I am under half a mile from my cabinet 400 yards but how can I check if my cabinet is getting fibire

You cant all you can do is once the exchange is enabled keep feeding your telephone number into BTs checker. When/if your cabinet is upgraded it will then state you can have FTTC.

Its not always the case but a lot of the time the nearer your cabinet is to the exchange the more chance it will be one of the first to be upgraded. In your case you may have a few months wait after the exchange is upgraded.
 
Pretty much what truth4free said above.

Sadly BT/Openreach doesn't release cabinet coverage data so it's actually very difficult for people to find out whether or not they're covered, although on average BT claims to enable 85% of cabinets within any given exchange area and at half a mile you'd thus stand a good chance of getting a fast service.. once it goes live.
