DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5ce507/czech_republic_tel) has announced the addition of the "Czech Republic Telecommunications Report Q1 2012" report to their offering.
The Q112 update to the Czech Republic Telecoms market report contains extended forecasts for the mobile, ARPU, fixed-line and internet sectors through to the end of 2016. It also contains analysis of new developments in the country's telecoms industry. BMI's analysis and forecasts are based on market data for Q111 provided by fixed-line incumbent Telefnica O2, Deutsche Telekom-owned T-Mobile Czech Republic, Vodafone Czech Republic and cable operator UPC Czech Republic. BMI also incorporates latest data from the ITU for the fixed-line and internet markets relating to the end of December 2010.
BMI expects the market to record slow growth, interspersed with quarters of subscriber losses as operators discount inactive subscribers. BMI forecast an average annual growth rate of 0.5% over the next five years, bringing the mobile subscriber base to just under 14.043mn in 2016 or penetration rate of almost 131.8%.
Meanwhile in April 2011, UPC established its first datacentre in telehouse TTC Telekomunikace in Prague. The new facility has a capacity of 350m2, which can be extended further and uses a node with n x 10GB capacity to connect to the optical backbone route. Customers can choose from a wide variety of services provided at the datacentre, including server hosting, web hosting, managed servers, rack housing, cloud services, virtual servers and others. To counter the strong growth of UPC, with broadband subscriptions up 8.2% y-o-y to Q211, the Telefnica O2 backed incumbent launched its VDSL network to offer high-speed broadband services earlier in 2011.
