How this measure is built

Definition
End-user internet traffic carried over fixed broadband networks.
Measure
One slice of Fixed broadband traffic ( form: level ) . Volume of internet data traffic carried across fixed broadband networks. Region and period are columns on every record, not slices.
Limitations
1 figure is a projection, drawn dashed and labelled in the table. Values are shown as published; StatOrigin does not revise, fill gaps or convert currencies.
Verification
Each value, unit, period and place was checked against its source evidence before publication. See the methodology and the corrections process.
