his report covers thirty-one countries across Europe – the EU 28, plus Norway, Iceland and Switzerland, and analyses the availability of nine broadband technologies (DSL, VDSL, cable modem, DOCSIS 3, FTTP, WiMAX, HSPA, LTE and satellite) across each market, at national and rural levels. The results of the study show that Coverage of NGA technologies (VDSL, Cable Docsis 3.0 and FTTP) capable of delivering at least 30 Mbps download reached 80 %, thanks to an increase of 5 percentage points in VDSL and 3 percentage points in FTTP last year. Ultrafast Broadband (Fibre to the Premises and Docsis 3.0 cable) is available in 58 %. 4G mobile is almost universal at 98%. Rural areas remain challenging, as 8% of homes are not covered by any fixed network, and 53% are not covered by any NGA technology.
