InCoax Networks is reportedly ramping up its operations in Finland as part of the nation’s initiative to enhance internet speeds.
Finland’s efforts to boost broadband speeds form part of the broader European digital agenda, however, the country is facing challenges due to outdated infrastructure in many properties. Older copper-based technologies, such as DOCSIS 3.1 and VDSL, fall short of the nation’s ambitious targets, creating a need for advanced upgrades.
InCoax Networks is positioning its MoCA Access technology as a key solution, offering symmetrical 2.5 Gbps services that can meet and exceed the country’s broadband goals.
As a result, Helge Tiainen, Business Development Director at InCoax Networks, indicated that the company expects significant sales growth in Finland.

The country aims to ensure all residents have access to at least 100 Mbps speeds by 2025, with plans to achieve symmetrical 1 Gbps speeds by 2030. In the past six months, four operators have successfully carried out pilot installations of InCoax Networks’ system solution. Currently, around 2,000 apartments are connected, and projections suggest this number could grow to 20,000 by 2025.
InCoax Networks provides a cost-effective solution for fiber operators by using existing cable infrastructure in buildings to quickly enhance internet speeds. Finnish regulations, which grant building owners ownership of new fiber networks, often discourage operators from investing in new installations. By leveraging coaxial cables, InCoax Networks avoids extensive network upgrades and minimizes tenant disruptions, offering a practical alternative for broadband improvements.
InCoax Networks’ technology allows for rapid installation in properties, enabling operators to seamlessly connect apartments as tenants sign up for the service. This efficiency shortens the time to generate revenue and enhances returns on investment (ROI).
The company’s expansion in Finland bolsters its position in the broadband technology sector and supports the movement towards sustainable and efficient broadband delivery throughout Europe.
