But we&#8217;re growing fast.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>At this point we should say that the OECD&#8217;s figures, which are said to have been collected in June 2019, appear to show full fibre &#8220;<em>connections<\/em>&#8221; (take-up) rather than network coverage. For example, the OECD reports that 2.33% of fixed broadband connections in the United Kingdom were for full fibre services, but we know from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ofcom\" target=\"_blank\">Ofcom<\/a>&#8217;s data that coverage was at 8% in May 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless this doesn&#8217;t change the fact that the UK is still playing a distant game of catch-up with many other countries, which is something that plenty of other international comparisons have also shown (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2019\/06\/uk-ranks-5th-in-2019-eu-broadband-connectivity-progress-study.html\">example<\/a>). By contrast the top OECD country of South Korean scored 81.65% for full fibre connections, which is no surprise as they&#8217;ve been deploying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/ftth\">FTTH<\/a> for quite a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, in the year to June 30th 2019, the number of fibre subscriptions increased by 13.8% across the 37 countries measured (the 36 OECD countries plus Colombia). Meanwhile Cable networks (e.g. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/vm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Virgin Media<\/a>) remained stable with a slight increase of 4.3% in the year and accounts for a significant 33.6% of all fixed broadband connections. Elsewhere <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/adsl\">DSL<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/adsl\">ADSL<\/a> etc.) is rapidly being replaced by fibre and its share has fallen from 41.6% to 35.1% in two years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Percentage of fibre connections in total fixed broadband, June

href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> deployments since 2017\/18, which is thanks to various things like growing competition from alternative network ISPs (e.g. <a

forth.<\/p>\n<p>Suffice to say that while the UK might be behind today, we&#8217;re catching up fast and appear to be on the right trajectory.
