About the Committee

The Data Centre & Data Centre Interconnection Committee is the FTTH Council Europe's newest committee, established to reflect the Council's expanded remit across data centres and the fibre infrastructure that connects them.

The Committee's current work programme includes a report on hollow core fibre (HCF) and multi-core fibre (MCF), a DCI market study developed with the Board, and updates to the Market Panorama to capture the Council's broader scope. Alongside this, the Committee is developing a programme of educational webinars for members on AI-driven data centres, covering the underlying drivers and market trends, internal data centre architectures and wider interconnection architectures.

The Committee also leads the data centre and interconnection content at the annual FTTH Conference, shaping several hours of programming across the full breadth of the Council's expanded remit.
Further outputs will follow, including new assets, market studies and content developed for the upcoming FTTH Conference. Click here and join us!

The Market Intelligence Committee has published the latest update of its core assets ahead of the FTTH Conference 2026, with a final refinement scheduled for release in early May. This last update includes minor adjustments for one country based on recent feedback. The combination of strong download figures and limited revisions highlights the high quality and robustness of both the report and its underlying data.

In parallel, the Committee will release the Per Country Report and introduce a new “Observatory” report—a concise document consolidating key figures and highlights from across existing outputs. This new format is designed to provide stakeholders with a quick and accessible overview of the most relevant insights.

Engagement with MIC outputs remains strong. A pre-Conference webinar attracted around 400 participants, while the MIC workshop at the FTTH Conference 2026 welcomed 290 attendees, confirming sustained interest in the Committee’s work.

These developments reinforce the Committee’s role in delivering reliable, accessible market intelligence to support informed decision-making across the fibre sector.
