Telecommunications Market Reports
Hungary Convergence - Internet
and Broadband Market
- Overview, Statistics & Forecasts
Report
This report provides a concise overview of Hungary’s Internet, broadband
and convergence market, covering major players, industry developments and
offering a variety of informative statistics. Hungary’s broadband market
has experienced strong growth, predominantly driven by the incumbent’s
focus on broadband to offset falls in fixed-line voice revenue. Although a
number of bit stream and LLU agreements have been concluded, the fixed-line
incumbent accounts for the majority of broadband subscribers. ADSL2+ services
have been launched and take up is expected to be healthy as the market develops.
Cable broadband is also widely available due to the network penetration of the
country’s cable operators. The broadband market as a whole will experience
significant growth as the regulator has reduced access tariffs and introduced
a wholesale system based on retail tariffs to ensure suitable margin for
alternative operators. Triple play services are available from both the cable
operators and the fixed-line incumbent which has launched IPTV trials. Digital
cable services have been launched by a handful of the smaller cable operators
and the country’s DTH market is showing fresh signs of life following
the introduction of services by a Romanian DTH operator. See table of
contents and report summary.
Hungary Key Statistics for Fixed
Line Telecoms Overview
Hungary was early to deregulate its telecoms market but interconnection and
loop unbundling disputes delayed full and effective competition. The regulator
has been rigorous in promoting competition, reducing interconnection tariffs
and number portability fees, and has also ensured that a fair access regime
is in place, with a number of LLU agreements concluded. However, new entrants
in the fixed-line sector will be fighting for a shrinking market, with fixed-line
numbers in decline due to fixed-to-mobile substation. This report provides a
variety of insightful statistics and a concise overview of the industry,
highlighting regulatory developments and introducing the major operators and
the network infrastructure of the country.

Hungary Mobile Market
- Overview & Statistics
Report
Hungary’s mobile market, like that of its Central European counterparts,
is showing signs of maturing, with penetration growth rates not as strong as
in the past. Services are available from three operators, all of which are
majority or completely owned by Western European operators. The increasing
importance of the mobile market is highlighted by the fact that since late-2005
traffic from mobile networks has surpassed that of fixed-line networks with the
gap between the two widening. This has been attributed to increasing
fixed-to-mobile substitution due to decreasing mobile tariffs and marketing
campaigns by the operators to encourage substitution. However, not all has been
well for the mobile operators, with ARPU levels in decline for some time although
the latest data shows the end may be in sight, with falling ARPU levels showing
signs of stabilisation. Mobile data usage is increasingly coming into focus,
with 3G services launched by all three operators and a variety of mobile content
and applications available. This report offers an informative overview of
Hungary’s mobile market, covering the major players, services offered,
regulations and a wealth of statistics offering an insight into the state of
the sector. See table of
contents and report summary.
