Germany - Convergence - Triple Play & Digital TV
Paul Budde Communication Pty Ltd, March 2010, Pages: 26
Germany’s triple play and digital TV market has grown strongly on the back of excellent DSL and cable infrastructure. Digital TV has undergone regulatory and licensing processes, and successful roll-outs will have extended the service to about 90% of the population by the end of 2009. Digital dividend spectrum, released from analogue switch-off, promises bandwidth which can be used for advanced wireless services extending and enhancing the reach of converging media. A number of operators, led by Deutsche Telekom, have invested in VDSL deployments to meet consumer needs for converged applications, while the consolidated cable operators have invested in upgrading their networks to 860MHz capacity as well as in DOCSIS 3.0 technology providing data at up to 100Mb/s. In this report we provide an overview of convergence in Germany in 2010, including recent developments in VoD, triple play and VoIP services, together with an overview of the digital and satellite TV markets.
