30 Consumers subscribe to FTTH but it takes time 90% Take-up vs years in operation Take-up across deployment 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Altibox Networx Bredbands Bolaget Superonline KPN Verizon HKBN TEO Orange PT Years in operation Source: FTTH Council Europe / Diffraction Analysis

31 How do Consumers feel bandwidth? The misunderstanding between average and available bandwidth: The average speed of a car: 39,11 km/h in the US (University of California) 24,5 km/h in the UK (Oxford University) Are modern cars necessary for 24,5 km/h?

32 The upload story Consumers love the cloud but they are not able to upload their files into it Care for elderly people services are available today Teleworking is a nice idea but they don t work as videoconferencing does not work on slow upload speeds but uploading files from the laptop takes ages Editing videos at home is fun with HD & 4K cameras You love 20 Megapixel cameras but there is no chance to share them online but did you ever try to upload those photos on Facebook?

33 Don t just take our word for it! When people get access to fibre, they don t just use more bandwidth, they find new ways of using it, too Jacob Bolin, Project Manager, Swedish Broadband Forum

34 FTTH Consumers are happy customers! FTTH/B users are massively more satisfied with their broadband solution than DSL customers. FTTH/B and DSL users agree on one thing, that Fiber Broadband is very good! There is a significant frustration from DSL users because they cannot upgrade to Fibre FTTH/B households use their home internet 32% more than DSL households, and are more open to adopting new services. FTTH/B customers are more valuable to operators than DSL customers, even if they do not always generate more revenue.

35 Conclusion The question is not: Will there be consumer demand for FTTH? The question is: Will we be able to provide it on time?
