Swisscom, Energie und Wasser Meilen (EWM) and the municipality of Herrliberg have settled on the key principles of the agreement, and expect to sign a definitive contract in September 2012. As noted in TeleGeography’s GlobalComms Database, Swisscom is deploying FTTH networks in 36 cities, using a multi-fibre method that will allow other operators open access to the infrastructure
