Abstract
This IDC study (which is a translation of the Japanese report IDC #J6060106)
analyzes the trends of the broadband service market in Japan in 2005 and
forecasts the market growth from 2006 to 2010. The broadband service market in
Japan grew steadily in 2005 and is expected to maintain positive growth during
the forecast period from 2006 to 2010. IDC forecasts that, while the growth of
ADSL slows down drastically and the possibility of ADSL showing negative growth
increases, the rapid growth of FTTH will become more prominent.
"Providers are conscious about establishing efficient and effective fiber
infrastructure in the rapidly-growing FTTH market. Providers will enable not
only Triple Play but also higher-level services such as home security in some
areas, which will further emphasize the advanced nature of FTTH," observes
Hiroyuki Kadowaki, market analyst, Communication Group, IDC Japan.
