\tSwiss operators Sunrise and Salt Mobile unveiled a fibre joint venture designed to address what they claim are key failings in the nation’s current coverage and mount a challenge to incumbent Swisscom.<\/p>\n

In a media presentation, Sunrise and Salt Mobile detailed plans to construct a fibre network through a soon-to-be-created 50:50 joint venture, Swiss Open Fiber.<\/p>\n

The company will be formed to serve the “strong demand” for fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) broadband, connect communities not served by current infrastructure, and challenge Swisscom. The companies said a recent move by the incumbent to double its FTTH coverage would result in a “de-facto monopoly” with “potential adverse consequences” for the market.<\/p>\n

Sunrise and Salt Mobile stated only 30 per cent of 5 million homes passed in the nation have FTTH access. They aim to connect 1.5 million homes over the next five-to-seven years with an investment of up to CHF3 billion ($3.1 billion).<\/p>\n

Construction of the network is scheduled to begin in Q4, with deployments targeting rural or low-density areas, along with suburban areas of mid-level density. Retail access will be offered in collaboration with with Swiss Fibre Net, a joint venture of local and regional energy providers established to coordinate access to various fibre networks.<\/p>\n

The operators noted rural areas also stand to benefit from a 5G boost due to greater availability of fibre backhaul. Urban coverage will be handled through wholesale deals with Swisscom and utility companies.<\/p>\n

Andre Krause, Sunrise CEO, said the joint venture will \u201caccelerate ultrafast broadband connectivity and significantly improve fibre penetration in Switzerland relative to other European countries\u201d.<\/p>\n

Salt Mobile CEO Pascal Grieder added the project is unique in leveraging \u201cthe capabilities and reach of two strong Swiss operators to create a nationwide infrastructure\u201d.<\/p>\n

Sunrise cancelled a proposed acquisition [1] of Liberty Global-owned cable company UPC Switzerland in November 2019 following shareholder resistance.<\/p>\n
