Fixed broadband and superfast broadband wholesale markets: The Autorité issues an opinion to Arcep

In its opinion, the Autorité insisted, in particular, on the distinction, which may be justified in the future, between fixed broadband and superfast broadband. The Autorité has also raised the importance of the work on the closure by Orange of its copper network, to switch to the FttH network. The Autorité stresses that particular attention will have to be paid to the timetable and the technical, operational, commercial and financial conditions of this changeover, which raises considerable competitive challenges.
