JERUSALEM: Bezeq<\/a> Israel Telecom , the country's largest telecoms group, is expecting its long-awaited fibre optic network<\/a> to boost financial results this year, chief executive David Mizrahi said on Monday.

Bezeq<\/a> began a full-scale fibre rollout this week but is a late entrant to the market where rivals such as mobile phone operators Cellcom and Partner Communications have already been deploying their own networks in recent years.

The project was delayed by nearly a decade of squabbling with the country's regulator over how much of Israel needed to be covered by the network, but Bezeq said demands were eased after the appointment of a new communications minister last year and the project had become financially viable.

Mizrahi said Bezeq, where the fixed-line business performed well last year despite the pandemic, has connected 250,000 households to fibre. It plans to ramp up deployment to reach some 1 million households by year end, or 40% of Israel's population.

\"There's a lot of extra revenue coming from broadband ... and we expect (fibre) to have a very positive effect on our numbers,\" Mizrahi told Reuters, citing customers upgrading and paying for installation.

Bezeq currently has 1 million internet customers using its traditional copper wire networks offering speeds of up to 200 megabits per second, compared with 500 Mbps for rival cable company HOT.

Partner, meanwhile, has attracted more than 150,000 fibre customers and Cellcom has more than 100,000, with speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second. These firms may also piggyback on Bezeq's network.

Bezeq, which plans to invest billions of shekels in fibre and offer speeds up to 2.5 Gbps, said its prices will be higher than its competitors and it would charge for installation, unlike Partner and Cellcom.

\"It remains to be seen if Bezeq's premium prices and installation costs will face pushback given the cheaper competition, or if conversely the competition will take the opportunity to start charging higher prices,\" said Barclays analyst Tavy Rosner in a note.

Mizrahi said it could take time for customers not familiar with the benefits of fibre to be persuaded to upgrade.

\"Most customers do well with 100 mega(bits). But over time, we will see more and more people\" moving to fibre, he said.

Bezeq will report fourth-quarter earnings on March 25. It expects a net 2020 profit of 1.05 billion shekels, with a lack of roaming revenue weighing on mobile unit Pelephone.

Its shares are up 16% so far in 2021 after a 42% gain last year.

Bezeq目前有100万互联网用户使用传统的铜线网络提供速度高达每秒200比特,而竞争对手500 Mbps有线电视公司热。

合作伙伴,与此同时,已经吸引了150000多名客户和纤维Cellcom已经超过100000,与1吉比特每秒的速度。这些公司可能也捎带Bezeq的网络。

Bezeq,计划投资数十亿舍客勒的纤维和提供加速2.5 Gbps,表示其价格将高于竞争对手,它将收费安装,与合作伙伴和Cellcom。

“还有待观察,如果Bezeq溢价和安装成本将面临阻力的低价竞争,或者相反的竞争将借此机会开始收取更高的价格,“Tavy Rosner巴克莱(Barclays)分析师在一份报告中说。

Mizrahi表示,它可能需要时间为客户不熟悉纤维被说服升级的好处。

“大多数客户做好100大型(位)。但是随着时间的推移,我们将会看到越来越多的人搬到纤维,”他说。

股价上涨了16%后,2021年到目前为止去年上涨42%。
