Open Fiber was founded to build an ultra-broadband fiber-optic communication network exceeding 1 Gigabit per second across the entire national territory, thus helping Italy overcome the digital divide with the rest of Europe by enabling next-generation digital services.
Open Fiber’s ultra-fast network is built using Fiber To The Home (FTTH) technology, literally meaning “fiber to home.” The entire route, from the exchange to the customer’s home, is fiber optics. This provides maximum performance with up to 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps). A “future-proof” service able to support the full potential of all new technologies set to arrive in the next few years.
At the end of December 2024, Open Fiber had over 14.5 million FTTH (Fibre To The Home) saleable property units, confirming its position as by far the leading FTTH provider in Italy, among the market leaders in Europe, and the first wholesale-only operator on the continent. More than 300 national and international providers have already signed commercial agreements to use its ultra-broadband network. Open Fibre’s plan in each Italian Region is a powerful economic driver.
