Fiber: paving the way for accelerated Fiber roll-out

Current progress

  • Every 15 seconds we connect one home or business to Fiber.

  • Today, we are deploying fiber in over 164 Belgian cities.

  • Over 2 million homes or businesses are connectable.

  • We welcome other operators and offer our open network today to over 35 fiber wholesale partners.

Faster, wider, and more cost-efficient with our partners

By collaborating with investment partners, we can get more done in a cost-efficient way. These collaborations bring Proximus another step closer to its ultimate objective, creating an open, future-proof network that connects every home and business in Belgium to high or very high-speed connectivity solutions.

Wallonia

We partner with Unifiber in Wallonia.

The aim of this JV is to connect 600,000 homes and businesses in Wallonia by 2028.

Flanders

In Flanders, Fiberklaar, an affiliate of Proximus, is deploying fiber in medium-dense cities

Fiberklaar’s goal is  to connect 1.5 million homes and businesses in Flanders by 2028.

German-Speaking Community

We set up a JV called “Glasfaser Ostbelgien”, a public-private partnership with the German-speaking Community and Ethias.

Its objective is to connect almost all of the 40.000 homes and businesses in this region, including in the so-called “white zones” .

Brussels

We continue to accelerate our fiber roll-out in Brussels with the goal of covering the entire Brussels Capital Region in the coming years.

Phasing out our existing copper network

Our fiber network is replacing the current copper network; deactivating our copper network enables operational and energy savings, as well as simpler infrastructural management. At the end of 2023, Proximus had 31 fiber-only zones across 9 cities in Belgium. The copper we are able to recover is sold for recycling or reuse.

Connecting less densely populated areas

White zones

We have heavily invested in new technologies to improve connectivity in rural areas and so-called white zones, places where there is a lack of connectivity. We believe that this is essential if we are to ensure that everyone, everywhere has access to the opportunities offered by the digital world.
