BREKO Broadband Study 2016 Market survey among BREKO members Sources: BREKO network operators across Germany, if not indicated otherwise
Executive Summary Broadband Study Digitisation – fully interconnecting all areas – carries a high potential for growth and prosperity Digitisation requires comprehensive deployment of optical fibre networks Status quo: in the absence of counter-measures, Germany will further fall behind Alternative network operators guarantee comprehensive optical fibre deployment 2 2

8 Theses Sustainable Deployment of Broadband Infrastructures 1 Infrastructure decisions are hardly reversible and create a path dependency. Sustainable infrastructure deployment takes the view of future needs set 2 against known physical and economic drawbacks. 3 Infrastructure supply creates and drives demand. 4 The trend towards exponential growth of bandwidth is set to continue. 5 Projections tend to underestimate future demand. 6 The future of mobile is fixed. 7 Download speed is not the only criterion determining Quality of Service. Fibre is the broadband infrastructure with the highest potential to comply with 8 future quantity and quality requirements. Source: Grove (2016) 5
