The FTTH Council Europe announces details of the 7th edition of its annual FTTH Conference. The FTTH Conference 2010 will be a worthy successor to the last edition in Copenhagen, which united 2,200 visitors, 74 speakers and 71 exhibitors with top quality content and excellent networking possibilities.

This two-day landmark event allows participants to deepen their knowledge of a wide range of fibre-to-the-home related topics such as regulatory and policy affairs, technical progress, content and services, environment and many more.

The speaking sessions will be illustrated by both European and international case studies from leading industry experts debating fibre deployments around the globe. The accompanying exhibitors’ hall will provide delegates with all facilities required to acquire hands-on experience with the latest fibre solutions.
