If it’s like here in Finland, coverage means there’s a fibre running under the street in front (or close enough nearby) but because it costs quite a lot to connect a building to it, especially if you want higher speeds and have to start retrofitting every apartment, many haven’t done it.
For example our house officially has fibre coverage, but the street-to-house connection costs ~1800€ which is why we still run a VDSL, but the apartment building down the street has 10Gbit to every apartment.
Won’t come out immediately, as that tech would first have to be finalized then introduced to the domestic market.
Japan is already pretty damn close to achieving 100% fiber network coverage for every household.
Living there right now and that is hard to believe. It’s very common to find housing that still runs on VDSL. Living in Tokyo too

damn that list is so clean. if it was any other place on earth, i guess it would be an incomprehensible or hard to read form
I’m sorry, fiber optics needs to be finalized before being introduced to the domestic market?
I’ve had fiver since a long, LONG time
Yeah, I’ve had a fiber cable running all the way into my apartment for over a decade, and directly into my router for years.
