German VDSL Expanded

A new arrangement between telecom heavyweights Deutsche Telekom and Vodaphone will built a brand new VDSL internet broadband services infrastructure to bring fast internet access to residents in Germany. Plus, DT is looking for more partners for the project.

“We are also in talks with other competitors and open for further cooperation,” a Deutsche Telekom spokesman said.

50 cities in Germany already have VDSL, with more on the way.

As part of the new arrangement, DT and Vodaphone will bring VDSL access to 50,000 households in the German cities of Wuerzburg and Heilbronn.

DT is hoping that other companies will join them in rewiring Germany with a faster internet service. They’re launching a new service, Internet IPTV, later this year to 500,000 homes and they feel that continued broadband expansion in the country is their way to profitability.
