The objective of this committee is to help Communication Service Providers avoid churn & create revenue opportunities through the provision of enhanced user experience.

While more and more households have access to full-fibre network, it becomes crucial to avoid home connectivity becoming a bottle neck and that the new gigabit services can efficiently reach end user devices without degradation of speed or performance.

The In-Home Broadband Excellence committee addresses the following questions:

  • how to provide, manage and monitor ‘Quality of Experience’ for the end-user
  • how to monetise value-added services and reduce costs
  • how to leverage standards and provide pointers to industry fora

You can expect multiple initiatives from this dynamic group, such as the In-Home Broadband Excellence Guide, available for every member of the FTTH Council Europe and sold to non-members at a price of €36 inc. VAT* una tantum, intended to help Communication Service Providers understand the topic of ‘In-home Broadband Excellence’ and optimize their business strategies to reap the benefits of fibre-based connectivity delivered to end-users' premises.

The In-Home Broadband Excellence committee is also very much engaged in the organisation of workshops at the annual FTTH Conference, as well webinars and other communications.

FTTH Market Forecasts 2023-2028

The market forecasts are consistent with the previous estimates and in line with the conclusions of the FTTH/B Market Panorama. The data foresee around 211 M homes passed for FTTH/B in 2028 in EU27+UK and 308 M homes passed in the EU39 region. It is expected that the top 3 countries in terms of homes passed will be Germany (33,5 M), France (33,2 M), and United Kingdom (30,7 M).

According to the forecasts, the number of subscribers is expected to reach 137 M in EU27+UK and 196 M in EU39 region, with take-up rates experiencing steady growth in both regions.

The physical limitation of existing cable and copper networks in terms of bandwidth is pushing telecom players to deploy full fibre solutions. In addition, increased traffic demand in the region is pushing operators to update their networks to Full Fibre in order to be ready for new traffic peaks. Thanks to recently launched national programmes coupled with DAE targets for 2025 & 2030, full-fibre connectivity will be reaching new high levels in European countries.

On the technology side, the data report a significant trend whereby PON is gradually but clearly prevailing over point-to-point fibre, as a consequence of the progress of PON technologies on one side, and the strong focus on power consumption and sustainability on the other.
