Lithuania continues leading in deploying next-generation fiber-optic Internet access (FTTH) technologies at the fastest rate in Europe. With 28% market penetration recorded in 2011, Lithuania is ahead of other European countries for the third year in a row and is also sixth on the global ranking list for the second time running, according to the recently released FTTH Council's "FTTH Ranking".

FTTH penetration in Lithuania exceeds fiber-optic adoption in Norway, Sweden and Bulgaria, taking positions from 2 to 4, almost two times. 

“The number of homes with fiber-optic Internet in Europe increased by 41% in 2011, and the number of new subscribers was up 28%”, says iDATE, which compiles the market panorama data on behalf of the FTTH Council Europe.

 “It is good to see that FTTH adoption continues to grow even in time of economic uncertainty,” said Hartwig Tauber, director general of the FTTH Council Europe. However, he admits that growth is slower than expected, largely because of the economic downturn.
