The FTTH Council Europe has been monitoring annually the evolution of full-fibre deployment throughout Europe since 2012. This essential work has been driven by the Market Intelligence Committee which publishes our flagship report FTTH/B Market Panorama, complete with FTTH Forecasts for Europe. The survey is commissioned through an external partner and the role of the Committee is to complete and refine these data based on the comprehensive input coming from the network of experts from our 150 members active in all European countries.

FTTH members have access to a more detailed version of the report with granular information regarding the individual FTTH markets in each of the 39 countries surveyed.

Two more reports have been produced under initiative of the Market Intelligence Committee, and launched during the last FTTH Virtual Conference 2021: the latest figures of the FTTH Forecasts for 2021 and 2026 and an overview of fibre deployments in rural areas.

The Market Intelligence Committee is also involved in other studies such as Copper Switch Off, Best Practices in Fibre advertising and the Socio Economic Impact of FTTH.

The mission of the Fiber to the Home Global Councils (FGCA) includes the communication to stakeholders in our respective regions of the extent of usage of FTTH throughout the world and forecasting the growth of FTTH. This task has been made difficult by the proliferation of terms and acronyms, while no doubt useful to individual organizations for their specific purposes, lack precise definitions. This is of particular concern when different research organizations choose their own definitions when conducting research.

As a consequence, it becomes impossible to compare the research on FTTH between different regions, or between different studies of the same region. This document defines the terms used by all the FTTH Councils (North America, LATAM, Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, Asia-Pacific, and sub-Saharan Africa) and specifically aims to reduce the terms used to a subset that are well defined, adequate and useful.
