This report is entitled “Residential ultra-broadband services in Latin America 2013”, and was completed in May 2013. It analyses the state of development of very-high-speed Internet access network deployments targeted at residential users in Latin America’s seven largest broadband markets: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Venezuela and Peru.

The report tracks the historic evolution of subscriptions to DOCSIS 3.0, FTTx (Fiber to the Home/Building/Curb) and VDSL services from the time these technologies began to be deployed by telecommunication operators in Latin America in 2008 to the end of Q4 2012.

The study also provides background and data about the first generation of broadband services that Latin American operators developed in the late 1990s using cablemodem and – later – ADSL technologies, and how take-up of these services evolved over the years in the region as operators now begin to upgrade and replace their networks with higher bit-rate broadband alternatives. 

For this report, Dataxis regarded as “ultra-broadband” all residential DOCSIS 3.0 Internet access accounts with advertised download speeds equal to or higher than 30 Mbps; all residential FTTx Internet access accounts; and all residential VDSL/VDSL2 data subscriptions.

All Q4 2012 ultra-broadband subscriber data has been split by technology, by country and by main operator. All historical figures were extracted from Dataxis’ Global Database.

This Report has been entitled “Pre-paid TV clients in Latin America” and it was drawn up in January 2013. This report analyzes the Pre-paid Pay-TV market in the seven main Latin American markets: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela.

The pre-paid modality appeared as a solution to sell Pay-TV services targeted to social sectors whose credit condition involved certain risk for the Operator, and it was appealing for occasional users, though it was a smaller potential public. According to Dataxis, the credit risk category included low income segments and, specially, unbanked segments, whose payment capacity could not be evaluated. Dataxis stated that, due to the economy informality, Latin American countries recorded low access-to-banking-service rates, around 30%-50%, in the active population, according to different consulting firms. And informality and low incomes are not synonymous.

Pre-paid consolidated as a subscription option in DirecTV in Venezuela in 2007. Although the model was exported over its other affiliates in 2008, it did not perform as expected –due to logistic issues- until mid 2010. In January, 2013, Dataxis identified 12 Pay-TV operators relying on Pre-paid plans in 6 of the main Latin American markets; Brazilian operators did not rely on Pre-paid plans.

According to Dataxis, by 2012 end, 5,11 million active Pre-paid subscribers were recorded in the 6 Latin American markets that relied on such modality. Such figure accounted for the 15.7% of Pay-TV active subscribers forecasted for that year. However, about the 90% of Pre-paid subscribers were recorded in Mexico and Venezuela. According to Dataxis, by 2017, Pre-paid subscribers might amount to 18,75 million active users in said 6 analyzed markets; which would account for the 34.67% of total subscribers forecasted for said segment.
