Fiber optic network for the municipality of Konz: Tawern, Wasserliesch and Wiltingen - German fiber optics starts bundling demand
Home office instead of commuting, series streaming instead of linear television, internet telephony instead of landline: In the coming weeks, the local communities of Tawern, Wasserliesch and Wiltingen have the opportunity to be connected to the fiber optic network, with which citizens can surf the internet at top speed. For this purpose, on May 6th, 2022, DeutscheOSS will start the bundling of demand.
German fiber optics is the leading fiber optic supplier for rural areas in Germany and is driving fiber optic expansion quickly and unbureaucratically. For this, the company depends on the support of the citizens in the local communities. Until the deadline of July 23, 2022, residents in the expansion area can conclude a contract with Deutsche fiber optics as part of demand bundling in order to receive a free fiber optic connection to their house or apartment. If at least 33 percent of the households that can be connected in Tawern, Wasserliesch and Wiltingen follow suit, nothing will stand in the way of expansion.
At the beginning of this year, the municipality of Konz and German fiber optics signed a cooperation agreement, taking the first step towards the digital future of the three local communities. "As the digital provider of the regions, it is our goal to provide rural areas in Germany with stable and future-proof infrastructure across the board. We bring the experience and technological expertise required for rapid fiber optic rollout. We see ourselves as a reliable partner for local authorities and local people and rely on close cooperation," says Oliver Prey, project manager at Deutsche Faser.
The new infrastructure takes into account all households in the expansion area and creates the conditions for latecomers to be connected. However, these households then have to bear the connection costs of currently 750 euros themselves.
The German fiber optics team provides detailed information about the network expansion, the products and services that can be booked and the course of the project at online information evenings and service points.
The online information evenings take place at 7:00 p.m. As part of a presentation, visitors are informed about German fiber optics and the respective project:
