Huawei has launched a suite of cutting-edge network solutions tailored to the unique needs of the African market. These solutions aim to boost connectivity, enable intelligent applications, and unlock the full potential of the continent’s digital economy.
At the heart of Huawei’s offerings is its F5G-A (F5G Advanced) product line, unveiled at the Global Optical Summit in Johannesburg. These solutions are designed to revolutionize connectivity in medium to large campuses across sub-Saharan Africa.
The FTTO 2.0 (Fiber to the Office) Solution leverages XGS-PON Pro and Wi-Fi 7 technologies to deliver lightning-fast speeds of up to 12.5/25G to individual rooms and 2.5/10G to access points. This ensures seamless connectivity for bandwidth-hungry applications like AR/VR, 4K/8K video, and cloud computing.
To support the growing need for reliable and efficient data center interconnect (DCI), Huawei introduced the OptiXtrans E6600, the first optical transmission product to support the fine grain OTN (fgOTN) standard. This cutting-edge technology enables precise bandwidth allocation and protection, ensuring that mission-critical data traverses the network securely and without interruption.
For high-density DCI scenarios, the OptiXtrans DC908 Pro platform offers unparalleled performance, supporting terabits per second per wavelength. This translates to faster data transfers, lower latency, and greater efficiency for data centers across Africa.
