Fixed Broadband Market Trends and Opportunities in Asia-Pacific - 2020

Summary

Fixed Broadband Market Trends and Opportunities in Asia-Pacific - 2020,’ a new Telecom Insider Report by the publisher, provides an executive-level overview of the fixed broadband market in Asia-Pacific. It delivers quantitative and qualitative insights into the fixed broadband market, analyzing key trends and growth drivers in the region.

The Asia-Pacific region has a modest fixed broadband penetration, but is host to the largest fixed broadband market, China, and the market with the most potential for fixed broadband development, India. There is a markedly higher fixed broadband penetration in developed Asia-Pacific, such as Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand. Most countries in emerging Asia-Pacific are focusing on bridging the digital divide between urban and rural areas by financing backbone and rural networks, while more developed countries are building subsea cables to boost the supply of international capacity. Increased competition is expected in the fixed broadband market due to open access and wholesale agreements (usually under a national broadband network with a structural separation framework), new fixed line entrants, the resurgence of 4G/5G fixed wireless access technology and the potential emergence of satellite broadband Internet as an alternative.

• FTTH/B will account for 90.3% of total fixed broadband lines in 2025. This is driven by fiber rollouts, national broadband networks, fiber wholesale and sharing deals, and the increased availability of fiber packages to support the demand for higher speeds and bandwidth-hungry applications.
• In Asia-Pacific, COVID-19 has made teleworking the norm and increased the consumption of digital media, resulting in a surge in residential data traffic.
