At present, the company is able to reach around 600,000 households directly with direct fiber optic connections, and an additional two million households are soon to be expanded each year. In ten years' time, Telekom could thus provide Germany with FTTH nationwide, but only if there is meaningful cooperation within the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"We want to be number one in fiber optics.\"<\/p><cite>Tim H\u00f6ttges, Chief Executive Officer of Deutsche Telekom<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to H\u00f6ttges, Telekom's investments amount to about 5.5 billion euros per year. A large part of this is spent on network expansion. The Bonn-based company is thus investing more than its competitors combined. In the future, this ratio could shift even further because <a href=\"https:\/\/webhosting.de\/en\/vodafone-stoppt-glasfaseroffensive\/\">Vodafone<\/a> recently a <a href=\"https:\/\/webhosting.de\/en\/vodafone-stop-fiber-optic-offensive\/\">Stop the fibre optic offensive<\/a> has announced. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Network day at Telekom: antennas, broadband, fiber optics\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6_NTa3VCRFo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vdsl-vectoring-als-zwischenschritt\">VDSL vectoring as an intermediate step<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During his presentation, H\u00f6ttges defended Telekom's decision to have invested in VDSL vectoring in addition to fiber optics in recent years. According to the CEO of Deutsche Telekom, the current Covid 19 pandemic in particular shows that the technology has proven itself. As a result, Deutsche Telekom was able to provide 80 percent of its customers with 100 Mbit\/s or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"Vectoring and super-vectoring got us through the crisis. Imagine if we expanded 20 percent with fiber optics and the rest had to do with less.\"<\/p><cite>H\u00f6ttges<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Telekom now sees the intermediate step via VDSL vectoring as completed. In addition to FTTH, the main focus is now on the expansion of 5G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"FTTH is my first, second and third priority. We will overlay vectoring where there is demand. If we want to expand our FTTH footprint, we're gonna have to overbuild.\"<\/p><cite><br>Srini Gopalan, Head of Telekom Germany<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In principle, it is therefore also possible that areas in which 100 Mbit\/s or more are already available via VDSL vectoring will soon receive a fiber optic connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-zusammenarbeit-der-branche-entscheidend\">Cooperation within the industry is crucial<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to H\u00f6ttges, cooperation within the industry is the most decisive factor for a nationwide fiber optic supply in Germany. As an example of successful cooperation, the CEO of the projects cites such as Glasfaser Nordwest, in which Telekom and EWE Netze were involved. Since the beginning of the year, 12,000 households in northern Germany have been connected to the fiber optic network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even companies from outside the industry, such as Deutsche Bahn, which will continue to <a href=\"https:\/\/webhosting.de\/en\/germany-railway-mountain-supply-all-network-with-fibre-optic-fibre\/\">Entire rail network with glass fibre<\/a> play an important role in the development of rural areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"We'll cooperate to make it go faster. Our networks are open. Wouldn't it be fair if we could share infrastructure with others on equal terms?\"<\/p><cite>H\u00f6ttges<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-glasfaserbaubau-in-deutschland-sehr-teuer\">Glass fibre construction in Germany very expensive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the lengthy approval procedures, the main problems associated with the expansion of fiber optics in Germany are the high <a href=\"https:\/\/webhosting.de\/en\/webhosting-wie-viel-darf-es-kosten\/\">Costs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"Fiber optic expansion in Germany is two to ten times more expensive than in other countries.\"<\/p><cite>Gopalan<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although modern methods such as microtrenching can significantly reduce these, they have hardly been used to date. Telekom would therefore like to make trenching more popular in the next few years and thus enable faster expansion at lower costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-f-rderung-in-l-ndlichen-regionen\">Support in rural areas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Telekom only wants to use the federal government's subsidy programs in rural regions where economic expansion is otherwise not possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"Promotion makes perfect sense in areas where people have no infrastructure. We are in complete agreement with Breko, Anga, VATM and Bitkom on the funding strategy.\"<\/p><cite>H\u00f6ttges<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the Group is demanding free access to all German households in order to be able to push ahead with FTTH expansion. Currently, the expansion is often blocked by the so-called service charge privilege. These are exclusive contracts that real estate owners have concluded with cable network operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\"The service charge privilege in Germany must go.
