Asia Moving Full Speed Ahead on Fiber to Home and Neighborhoods
In-Stat: Five major countries in Asia comprise the fastest developing regional broadband market including the adoption of advanced FTTX in the residential broadband market: both Fiber to the Premise/Home (FTTP/FTTH) and Fiber to the Neighborhood/Curb/Building (FTTN/FTTC/FTTB), . Asia as a whole, and in particular the growing China and Australian markets, provide huge growth potential for equipment and service players to claim a slice of the growing FTTX pie. Foreign investors may not need to build up networks or provide services on their own,. Instead, content developers and value-added services providers may have better revenue prospects if they work closely with broadband service providers who lead the adoption of FTTX in those markets.

-
In South Korea, service providers have found that online gaming, Video-On-Demand, and e-commerce are moneymaking applications that are well suited to the increased bandwidth of FTTX.
