Is your property located in the Zurich urban area but you’re not yet connected to the fibre-optic network? Then request connection to the fibre-optic network with the request form shown here.
If you’d like to replace your existing fibre-optic connection or request an expansion, please use the request form for a change to your existing fibre-optic connection.
Once we’ve reviewed your request and granted approval, you can arrange for the cable installation. Note: These installations may only be carried out by our certified installation partners. These are the only companies that have the necessary information and tools required to carry out this work properly.
In cooperation with Swisscom, we operate a modern, powerful fibre-optic network in the city of Zurich. Through this network, we enable the use of high-performance communications solutions.
For new buildings and replacement buildings in urban areas, please contact ewz regarding connection to the building’s fibre-optic network.
As a property owner, you can choose between two options for connection to the fibre-optic network for new buildings and replacement buildings:
- ‘Do-it-yourself’: you can implement the necessary construction measures on your private property independently and at your own expense.
- Installation by ewz: you can have ewz carry out all necessary construction measures on your private property for a flat fee.
For conversions, renovations and the like, the existing FTTH network builder (Swisscom or ewz) must be contacted.
The costs are outlined in the
Regulations on FTTH connection fees (in German).
