NOTAS: | A study prepared for the European Commission DG Communications Networks, Content & Technology by OMDIA and Point Topic "The Broadband Coverage 2022 study monitors the Member States progress towards targets set out in the Digital Decade Policy programme namely: ‘Gigabit connectivity for all by 2030’ and ‘at least 5G in all populated areas.’ The collected data reflects the situation at the end of June 2022 compared to the situation at the end of June 2021. This report covers 31 countries across Europe – the EU27, plus Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, and the UK and analyses the availability of eleven broadband access technologies (DSL, VDSL, VDSL2 Vectoring, cable modem DOCSIS 3.0, cable modem DOCSIS 3.1, FTTP, FWA, LTE, 5G, 5G coverage on the 3.4–3.8 GHz spectrum band, and satellite) across each market, at national and rural levels. In addition, three combination categories indicating the availability of one or more forms of broadband coverage are also included in the study. These cover overall fixed broadband availability, next generation access (NGA) availability and overall FTTP & DOCSIS 3.1 availability." |
