Houses passed is an industry term meaning the potential number of premises a service provider could connect to high-speed fibre optic broadband.
Germany, Britain and Italy are among countries expected to experience significant growth in the number of homes passed in 2026 compared to 2019, with Germany expected to see 730% growth, Britain 548% and Italy 218%.

Apple agreed to the US settlement in March, admitting no wrongdoing but saying it wanted to avoid protracted litigation.
“Apple pushed updates to mask problems with the battery, knowing it would slow down phones,” said Els Bruggeman, head of policy and enforcement at Euroconsumers, the consumer advocacy group behind the new lawsuits.
European consumers, she said, “just want to be treated with the same respect that was given to consumers in the United States”.
Euroconsumers-affiliated groups are filing class action lawsuits in Belgium and Spain on Wednesday,
