Product Summary

Africa is in the midst of an FTTH boom – an increasingly loud FTTH revolution that is made even more notable by the unique nature of some of its characteristics. Between 2014 and 2016, the number of homes and premises passed by fibre has more than tripled. The cumulative number of African homes/premises passed by fibre crossed the 1m mark in 2016. We expect it to hit the 2m mark in 2017.

The total number of FTTH connections in Africa passed the 500k mark in 2016. Recent growth has been strong: around 75% of Africa’s FTTH connection growth since 2010 has occurred over the past two years. Last mile Fibre is upending Africa’s retail broadband market dynamics – from bandwidth speeds to user experience, pricing models and market share upheavals, it’s a whole new game.

These dynamics are analyzed in our new report, “The African FTTH Boom, Last Mile Fibre Dynamics, Economics and Outlook in African Markets” – arguably the most comprehensive analysis developed on the rise and impact of FTTH in African markets.
