Asia Pacific - Broadband Market
Report
Asia’s share of the global broadband subscriber
base stood at 37% by end-2007, with 128 million of the 350 million broadband
subscribers in the world being in Asia. At the same time, the dominant fixed
broadband technology continued to be DSL with 66% of the market. However, in
a number of the more advanced markets of Asia (South Korea, Taiwan) DSL as a
broadband platform was in decline as the number of FttH services began to
expand. This report provides an overview of the broadband market in Asia Pacific.

most significantly, through the efforts of Japan and South Korea, in particular,
and even China, to some extent, the region has been moving boldly into next generation
mobile technologies, in both development and in application. When it comes to 3G,
Asia has become the region to watch. This report provides an overview of the Asian
