InCoax Networks Boosts Commercial Traction in Finnish Fiber Expansion

LUND, Sweden, Sept. 15, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- InCoax Networks AB has seen a significant boost in its commercial position in Finland, as the country's rapid fiber expansion reaches regional cities, towns, and municipalities. Finnish fiber operator Fibernet Finland has placed a new order worth approximately EUR 70,000 for the continued deployment of InCoax Fiber Access Extension. This order follows more than 150 apartment buildings previously contracted for the solution, providing further evidence of InCoax's growing commercial traction.

According to the Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom, fiber coverage reached 80 percent of Finnish households in September 2025, marking a 12 percentage point increase from the previous year. Despite this progress, significant regional differences persist, driving continued demand for fiber investment outside the largest urban markets. The Finnish market is characterized by a broad operator base, with around 130 companies owning or operating fiber networks, ranging from national providers to regional and local operators.

InCoax's technology, Fiber Access Extension, enables operators to bring fiber to the building and reuse existing in-building coaxial infrastructure to connect individual apartments. This approach can reduce the need for extensive new cabling inside the property, shorten installation time, and help operators activate subscribers sooner. The model also aligns well with the seasonal characteristics of fiber construction in Finland, where outdoor work is typically concentrated from spring to autumn, while indoor installations can continue throughout the year.

Fibernet Finland, an example of this development, is expanding its fiber network in regional markets across Finland, including smaller cities, towns, and municipalities. More than 150 apartment buildings have already been connected using InCoax Fiber Access Extension, and the new order supports continued deployments as Fibernet's rollout progresses. The technology is particularly useful in apartment buildings where existing coax infrastructure offers an efficient alternative to installing new cabling throughout the property.

Jakob Tobieson, CEO of InCoax Networks, stated, "Finland is becoming an important commercial proof market for InCoax. Fiber investment is expanding rapidly, increasingly reaching regional markets where deployment economics and speed are important. What we see with Fibernet is particularly relevant because the relationship has progressed beyond initial deployments to continued use and repeat orders as additional buildings are connected."

Tobieson continued, "For InCoax, the opportunity is not dependent on individual large projects. Fiber networks are expanded area by area and apartment buildings are connected over time. Establishing our technology as part of an operator's ongoing deployment model can therefore create a recurring flow of business as the network grows."

In addition to Fibernet, InCoax has established Fiber Access Extension deployments with several operators in Finland. The technology is currently being used in the broadband modernization projects in Kankaanpää and Sodankylä, where approximately 1,000 apartments are served and expected to be served using InCoax technology. The growing installed base and continued orders in Finland provide further commercial evidence for InCoax Fiber Access Extension as operators seek cost-effective ways to turn expanding fiber coverage into active broadband connections in existing apartment buildings.
