Telecom company Delta also provides services via Open Dutch Fiber network

Telecom provider Delta is expanding its service footprint by partnering with Open Dutch Fiber to provide internet, TV, and phone services to over 200,000 households. The initiative covers multiple Dutch municipalities and is set to launch officially in early next year.

Telecom provider Delta has announced a strategic partnership to offer its internet, television, and telephone services over the Open Dutch Fiber network. This collaboration initially grants access to over 200,000 households across various municipalities, including Sittard-Geleen, Roosendaal, Venlo, Woerden, and Kerkrade. By leveraging this existing infrastructure, Delta aims to significantly expand its customer base throughout the country.

Delta plans to reveal specific subscription details by the end of the year, with service delivery scheduled to commence early next year. The agreement also provides a framework for potential future expansions. Executives from Open Dutch Fiber highlighted that this move reflects the evolving nature of the Dutch fiber market and emphasized the importance of utilizing existing infrastructure rather than overbuilding networks, which can lead to unnecessary societal costs and inefficiencies.
