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.

Policy & Regulation Committee Accelerates Policy Engagement Over Summer

While the summer months are typically associated with vacations, the Policy & Regulation Committee has shifted into high gear to contribute to a series of public consultations. A key focus is the European Commission’s Call for Evidence on the proposed Digital Networks Act (DNA)—a strategically significant initiative that could reshape the regulatory landscape. Central to the debate is whether the current regulatory framework, namely the European Electronic Communications Code (EECC), remains fit for purpose. Our position is clear: the existing framework has proven effective. Any slowdown in investment or risk of Member States missing Digital Decade targets cannot be attributed to the regulatory model itself. We are working to reinforce this viewpoint by aligning with like-minded stakeholders to ensure a united and persuasive message.

At the same time, copper switch-off remains our top priority. This is clearly reflected in all P&R Committee documents currently in preparation, which emphasize the urgency of a coordinated and well-supported transition.

Another ongoing and important debate concerns the upper 6GHz spectrum band. Here, the Committee supports unlicensed use to strengthen the future of Wi-Fi connectivity. This topic has fostered close collaboration with the IBE Committee, given its implications across both regulatory and technical dimensions of future network development.

In short, this summer is anything but quiet for the Policy & Regulation Committee as we continue to shape key policy discussions that will impact our sector for years to come.
