UPC Romania’s marketing manager Company Robert Redeleanu said the company provided the Fiber Power 200 Mbps service to 24 localities at the end of 2013, but the service is currently available in all areas covered by UPC internet services, reaching over 2 million homes.
According to surveys, 57% of internet users in urban areas have at home at least two devices used for internet access, while 30% of them have at least three such devices automatically connected to WiFi.
Home Wi-Fi coverage is a priority for UPC – over 45% of total internet customers already access this service and their share is expected to reach 70% by the end of 2014.
UPC has been operating on the Romanian market since 1992 and is one of the largest local cable companies, providing cable and satellite TV, internet and digital hardline telephony services.
The company is held by UPC Holding based in The Netherlands, part of American Group Liberty Global.
