Swiss4net offers all telecommunications providers (“Communication Service Providers” or “CSPs”) non-discriminatory access to their technically sophisticated FTTH fibre optic networks, which are operated according to a 4-fibre point-to-point model. Swiss4net currently builds or operates three regional FTTH fibre optic networks with approx. 33,000 connected households/businesses in Baden (AG) and Chiasso (TI) and Ascona (TI), and is preparing additional FTTH fibre optic network expansions.
Swiss4net is a holding company that aims to finance modern broadband “Fibre To The Home - FTTH” fibre optic networks in small cities and communities in Switzerland. Swiss4net finances their own operating companies that implement the expansion and operation of these FTTH fibre optic networks.
Swiss4net supports their operating companies in the expansion and operation with expertise for these passive FTTH fibre optic networks, which are principally established on a point-to-point connection.
Swiss4net is held by Arcus Infrastructure Partners LLP, which is experienced in this market segment.

Swiss4net invests in the expansion and operation of non-discriminatory, modern broadband fibre optic networks for passive FTTH infrastructures. As a specialist and investor, we pursue the strategy of “best networks & sustainable operations” in small cities and communities. Swiss4net implements the recommendation of BAKOM in the construction and operation of their own passive FTTH infrastructure.
Swiss4net is a niche player in the expansion and operation of non-discriminatory passive FTTH fibre optic networks and, therefore, the only independent driver of free end user competition on the telecommunications market.
Swiss4net offers “open access” and provides their fibres (fibre local loop) and their CO locations on attractive terms exclusively to telecommunications providers with their own active infrastructure on their passive FTTH infrastructure.
Svviss4net promotes competitiveness among telecommunications providers with respect to end users by providing their passive FTTH infrastructure and through their volume of building units (flats/businesses). Ultimately, market independence in end consumer competition (Swiss4net is not a telecommunications provider) contributes to enormous trust and a lot of goodwill.
GRESB: International top marks for sustainability
In this year’s internationally renowned GRESB benchmark (Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark), we managed to achieve something that no other Swiss fibre optic operator has achieved so far: a 5-star ranking. In addition, with an overall rating of 85 out of 100 possible points, we also secured first place internationally in the Fibre Networks category.

Fibre vs. VDSL vs. Cable
Both VDSL Internet (copper) and Cable Internet (coax) are old technologies delivering a fraction of the broadband internet speed of Fibre. Optic fibre is fast, reliable, clean and green: the best and only viable Internet solution for today and for the future.

Green Fibre
Fibre is not only the best Internet technology with regard to speed and reliability, it is also by far the best for the environment. Fibre has a minimal ecological impact, reduces waste, consumes very little energy and helps decrease greenhouse gas emissions.
