Sweden - Broadband Market - Overview, Statistics & Forecasts - Document Details

Sweden has one of the highest broadband penetration rates in Europe, the result of effective government broadband policies and a population quick to adopt emerging technologies. DSL dominates broadband access, though Metro Ethernet, fibre, satellite, and WLAN access are also available. Considerable investment in fast mobile networks has also made mobile broadband a realistic proposition. This report examines Sweden’s fixed and wireless broadband markets in 2008, and also presents statistical broadband forecasts to 2018.
