The glasfiberwar in The Netherlands: what’s up?
The Netherlands are bring Fiber to the Home in a very high pace. Within 4 to 5 years it is expected that 99% of the households will have a glass fiber connection. Where a few years back only household in more remote areas were getting fiber, organised by local initiatives, now large companies with almost unlimited funds are fighting to be the first to put the infrastructure in the ground. Sometimes multiple companies in the same street.

Dutch:
Nederland verglaast in een hoog tempo. Verwachting is dat binnen 4 a 5 jaar 99% van de huishoudens voorzien is van een glasvezelaansluiting. Waar in het begin het vooral lokale initiatieven waren in de buitengebieden buitelen nu grote partijen met diepe zakken over elkaar heen om infrastructuur aan te leggen. Steeds vaker meerdere partijen in dezelfde straat.
