This annual publication, Germany - Telecoms, IP Networks, Digital Media and Forecasts, provides a comprehensive overview of the trends and developments in the telecommunications and digital media markets in Europe's largest telecom market.

Market highlights:

In common with other European markets, telecom investment in 2010 and 2011 will be focussed on the broadband and mobile sectors as operators continue to upgrade networks and compete for subscribers. Telecom revenue fell sharply in 2009 in the wake of the economic crisis, but should recover marginally during 2010 and more strongly thereafter, largely bolstered by consumer spending on mobile data and broadband.

Mobile broadband should make significant progress by the end of 2010 as the first LTE-based networks come on-stream for consumers. This may significantly alter consumer use of mobile data offers, with a greater emphasis on mobile broadband as a substitute for fixed-line access.

Germany's fibre sector can expect to see considerable development in 2010 and 2011 as DT pushes its revamped strategy, moving beyond the current focus on VDSL to FttH. The company planned to invest more than 10 billion in a new fibre access network to 2013, providing GPON FttH to four million households, or 10% of all German households, by 2012.

With analogue switch-off on schedule, mobile broadband stands to be the major beneficiary after 2012 from auctioned sub-GHz spectrum.
