Provisions are obligatory – and meanwhile are engraved in stone for the whole European Union: „The existence of high-speed electronic communications networks up to the end-user should […] be facilitated, in particular by high-speed-ready in-building physical infrastructure. Given that providing for mini-ducts during the construction of a building has only a limited incremental cost while retrofitting buildings […], all new buildings or buildings subject to major renovation should be equipped with physical infrastructure, allowing the connection of end-users with high-speed networks.“ (Excerpt from EU directive 2014/61/EU) Article 8 of the directive demands the integration of high-speed-ready, in-building physical infrastructures for all new buildings and extensive renovations with applied building permit after the 31st of December 2016. The directive for almost whole Europe has already been transposed into German law: According to § 77 k TCA (Telecommunications Act) new buildings, that are supposed to have connections for telecommunication services for the end-user, must be equipped with high-speed-ready passive network infrastructures inside the building up to the network termination points. Regardless of the legal obligation especially in apartment buildings or highly charged buildings the infrastructure inside the building envelope must be suitable for a fast connection to the outside. But especially inside buildings particularly strict requirements are effective – primarily with regard to fire protection. The speed•pipe® indoor system masters the line between safety, optimum blowing-in characteristics and ease of assembly.
