Vodafone and Orange target 3 million FTTH connections in Spain in 2015

Telecom operators Vodafone and Orange will invest in fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) targeting three million homes and businesses in Spain by September 2015.

The development is part of an agreement announced in March 2014, when Vodafone signed deal to acquire Ono.

Vodafone and Orange today said the companies will collectively build FTTH to two million premises across Spain.

As the joint deployment has already reached 800,000 premises across 12 Spanish cities, the companies will jointly deploy fiber to an additional 1.2 million premises in areas where the Ono high-speed fiber network is not present by September 2015.

Vodafone will provide Orange with wholesale access to one million homes using the Ono network.

As per the amended agreement, Vodafone and Orange will provide each other with wholesale access to future FTTH deployments across Spain on a reciprocal basis.
