en.Wedoany.com Reported - German fiber optic network operator Deutsche Giganetz GmbH has partnered with telecommunications group Vodafone, enabling approximately 500,000 customers already connected to the Giganetz network to use internet, telephone, and television services provided by Vodafone from 2027. The two parties have signed a long-term letter of intent for cooperation.

Vodafone stated in Düsseldorf that, combined with its own television cable and fiber optic networks, 72% of German households can now order Vodafone's gigabit internet services. Deutsche Giganetz operates fiber optic networks and expansion projects in approximately 200 cities and communities across 12 federal states. Among its roughly 500,000 customers, 180,000 are from 40 networks in the state of Hesse. By 2030, the regional network will expand to cover 300,000 households.

Giganetz stated that the company also collaborates with other regional suppliers to provide services by mutually opening networks. After the construction phase ends, initially only the network builder typically offers services as a monopoly, leaving customers with no choice. Open Access is considered a prerequisite for the faster rollout of fiber optic technology.
