4. Fiber requires important CapEx investment
1. Consumer is becoming technologically agnostic
2. Telecom industry is consolidating in fewer
mobile-fixed-TV integrated operators
Vodafone – ONOSpain
SFR - NumericableFrance
Liberty Global – ZiggoThe Netherlands
BT - EEUK
3. Both networks need optical fiber like never before
