Denmark - Broadband Market Insights, Statistics and Forecasts

Synopsis

Denmark has the highest broadband penetration in the world, the result of excellent cable and DSL infrastructure and progressive regulatory regime which has encouraged operator access to both copper and fibre networks. Although fibre networks as yet have only a small footprint, a number of community and metropolitan schemes have supplemented TDC’s commitments. Unusually within Europe, Denmark has focussed on FttH architecture rather than FttB. This report assesses developments in Denmark’s fixed and wireless broadband markets, and provides broadband forecasts to 2020.

Key developments:

Continuing growth in fibre network roll-outs; regulator’s H1 2011 market data update; telcos’ operating and financial data to end-2011; market developments into 2012.

Companies mentioned in this report include:

TDC, TeliaSonera, Telenor, Stofa, YouSee, Canal Digital Denmark, TRE-FOR, NRGI. Clearwire, ButlerNetworks, ECI Telecom, Nordisk Mobiltelefon, FastTV.
