Telefonia Fissa
• ~ 20 mln di accessi complessivi, registrati a fine giugno 2021 (+ 280 mila unità su base
annua): 6,2 mln in rame, 1,7 mln in FWA, 9,8 mln in FTTC, 2,3 in FTTH
• Nell’arco di 4 anni (giugno 2017 - giugno 2021), a fronte di una significativa flessione delle linee
in rame (↓ 9,9 mln), sono aumentati sensibilmente gli accessi in tecnologia FTTC (+6,80
mln di unità), FTTH (+1,78 mln) e FWA (+0,70 mln)
• Le linee con velocità pari o superiori ai 100 Mbit/s negli ultimi quattro anni (giugno 2017 - giugno
2021) sono passate dall’8,3% al 57,4% del totale
• Il traffico dati medio giornaliero nei primi 6 mesi del 2021 è ↑ del 22% rispetto al corrispondente
valore del 2020 e, con riguardo al periodo pre-Covid, dell’83% rispetto al primo semestre 2019
Telefonia Mobile
• Negli ultimi 4 anni si è assistito ad una costante riduzione delle SIM Human emesse,
registrando una flessione di ~ 7 mln di linee da giungo 2017 a giugno 2021

FWA scenario
FWA: an exciting new opportunity to increase revenues
Mobile Network Operators (MNOs)

- 5G network roll out is very CAPEX intensive and
mobile users’ market is saturated
- Household broadband is in many cases an un-
addressed market and represent a business
opportunity
Multi Service Operators (MSO)

- FWA also offers a new revenue opportunity in areas
and segments that are not cost-efficiently
addressed
- Interest in connected homes is growing fast and
they include home security, utility management,
health and wellness
- Connecting a home with FWA opens up a number
of possible revenue streams beyond pure
connectivity.

Main reasons why FWA is gaining momentum in the industry
1) Network performance keeps improving, making FWA increasingly competitive and good
enough for various use cases.
2) New spectrum in several bands is being made available globally.
3) Network cost (cost per delivered bit) keeps dropping, enabling a viable operator business case
for FWA, and making it affordable to households for services such as TV/video streaming.
4) The growing global popularity of the Internet and video streaming has led to increasing demand
for high-performance broadband services.
5) Many operators are struggling to find revenue growth.
6) Governments are also fueling connectivity and broadband rollouts through various programs
and subsidies, as there is a clear link between increased broadband penetration and economic
growth
7) Technological neutrality: Fiber but also wireless technologies such as FWA.
Competitive FWA infrastructure landscape
FWA are attracting three main types of vendors:
- A handful of disruptive connectivity initiatives, i.e Google’s Project Loon, Low Earth Orbit (LEO)
satellite. Still in developing phase, no commercial
- Proprietary FWA solutions, single-frequency-band products ranging from 3.5 GHz to up to 60.
- the 3GPP industry will offering multipurpose 5G networks with FWA, considering the enormous
established ecosystem of 3GPP, but still in trial phase-
The mobile market is saturated, looking for alternative source of income!

FWA has three main advantages over fiber
1) Time to market
- Fiber roll-out is time consuming
- Fast time to market with FWA
2) Financial attractiveness
- Fiber build-out is capital intense with lower ROI outside dense urban areas
- FWA has light investment profile with lower risk
3) Sustainability
- FWA reuses existing site infrastructure
- 5G will enable operators to have one network for multiple services, including MBB, FWA
and IoT (expected not before a couple of years)
- FWA complimentary solution to FO

FWA scenario
FWA 5G Fixed vs FWA 5G Mobile – @ 26 and 28 Ghz
A) FWA 5G Fixed (mmWave only)

- All-in-one box, integrated solution (BTS integrates gNB + Core Network)
- Only fixed CPE - 90° Sector
- High capacity CPE (up to 400 Mbps) – in linea with EU and Berec definitios
- Low latency > 2ms
- Ideal for sub-urban and rural areas – High distance (> 5 Km)
B) FWA 5G Mobile (sub-six + mmWave)
- 5G Core with Inter-band NR Carrier Aggregation (2 radios, sub-six + mmWave)
- Mobile + CPE + IoT applicatios
- High capacity (Fiber-like) – Enhanced Mobile Broadband – up to Gbps
- Very low latency > 1ms
- High connection density (metropolitan/urban areas) – Low distance (hundred m)
