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!

This page is new and still growing. The Committee's assets, studies and Conference materials are currently in production and will be added here as they are published. In the meantime, you can follow the Committee's latest news below.

In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee: Building on the Conference Momentum

Jul 24, 2026
Committee News | In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee |

The In-Home Broadband Excellence Committee is carrying forward the momentum built at the FTTH Conference in London, where its workshop set out the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of in-home connectivity. The central message was that the future of broadband excellence is won inside the home: fibre rollout is advancing rapidly and Wi-Fi technology is mature, yet the data continues to show significant experience gaps at the end-user level. 

The Committee's work reflects that reality, delivering on the promise of gigabit connectivity takes more than network deployment alone, and requires the industry to align spectrum policy, engineering practices, data-driven insights and sustainable commercial models so that performance reaches the device itself. Consumers do not experience access speeds; they experience performance, making consistently strong in-home experiences a shared responsibility across the ecosystem, from operators and vendors to policymakers and service providers. 

Building on this, the Committee continues to drive industry alignment through its guides, workshops and webinars, turning network capability into real-world quality of experience for the end user.
