Lithuania - Convergence, Broadband & Internet Market - Overview, Statistics & Forecasts

Synopsis

Lithuania has a small but sophisticated Internet market, with broadband accounting for 99% of all Internet connections. ADSL is losing its share of total broadband connections as FttH/FttB and mobile broadband gains popularity. WiMAX holds promise given the launch of competing mobile WiMAX services. Triple play services are available from a number of operators including the cable TV operators and fixed line incumbent TEO, which has hedged its bets in the digital TV market by offering both broadband TV (IPTV) as well as digital terrestrial TV based on the DVB-T standard. Offering abundant statistical information and broadband market penetration forecasts to 2018, this report covers Lithuania’s burgeoning broadband and convergence market, introducing major players and market developments.
