Find out everything about fiber optic expansion in Bavaria: goals, funding programs and current developments for gigabit-capable networks.

Konnersreuth on the way to gigabit: Fiber optic expansion starts now!
A significant initiative was launched in Munich on January 29, 2020, which aims to significantly improve the digital infrastructure in Bavaria. The “Guideline to promote the development of gigabit-capable broadband networks in the Free State of Bavaria”, also known as the Bavarian Gigabit Directive, was presented to raise internet speeds in the Free State to a new level.
The main goal of this directive is to provide gigabit internet across Bavaria by 2025. This means that users should be able to receive and send data at speeds of at least 1 Gbit/s for commercial connections and 200 Mbit/s for private households. These speeds are critical to meet growing demands for internet services.
Funding details
The funding aims to ensure reliable and fast internet that is accessible to everyone. The Bavarian Gigabit Directive supports the development of broadband networks that can offer these high transmission rates. This is particularly important as more and more people rely on fast internet, be it for home office, online learning or streaming services.
The Konnersreuth market has currently started a funding process. The first phase, market exploration, has already been successfully completed. An expanded market survey is currently underway that includes additional parcels of land to ensure that as many households and companies as possible can benefit from the funding.
For anyone who would like to find out more about the progress of the funding and the associated documents, current information is available on the Bavarian Broadband Center website.

The Bavarian Gigabit Directive is an important step towards a modern and efficient digital infrastructure that meets the needs of the Bavarian population. This initiative supports Bavaria on its way to a digital future, which is of great importance for both companies and private individuals.
