With the onset of emerging technologies and increasing appetite among enterprises to create intelligent digital services, the demand for more bandwidth and better network connectivity is at an all-time high.
The future of digital productivity rests on evolving network capabilities which Huawei has charted a path to achieve.
Earlier this year at Mobile World Congress 2024, Leon Wang, president of Huawei’s Data Communication Product Line, launched a fresh line-up of Net5.5G-oriented products and solutions to meet the market demand.

Speaking to CIO ASEAN on the event’s sidelines, Wang doubled down on the value of improving network quality to “evolve towards the future”.
“Most customers not only care about the network in terms of connection but also the experience of the network,” said Wang. “Net5.5G not only covers the basics like speed, latency and bandwidth but also the level of experience.”
He continued to explain Huawei’s endeavors to provide customers with a sense of “assurance” in their continued use of vital applications such as video conferencing in their daily work.
The four tailored solutions launched by Huawei this year that will support carriers will cover mobile backhaul, enterprise campus, converged transport, and data centre network.
Fresh solution suite
Firstly, to tackle traffic requirements of ultra-broadband applications, the access ring of Huawei’s mobile backhaul solution will be upgraded from 10GE to 100GE while its base station routers deliver access capabilities of 25GE, 50GE, 100GE, and 400GE.
Leveraging its Network Digital Map, Huawei underscores that the solution promises “application-level experience visualisation and optimisation, achieving zero congestion for VIP services and accelerating user experience monetization”.
In addition, speaking to its new 10Gbps Campus solution, Huawei highlights upgrades to the wireless, application and Operation & Maintenance (O&M) experiences, aiming to offer smooth, stable and sustainable network use and management.
“In 2024, campus networking officially enters the Wi-Fi 7 era,” stated Wang. “Chip vendors have released over 20 Wi-Fi 7 chips. IDC predicts that there will be 233 million Wi-Fi 7 terminals in 2024, and mainstream access point (AP) shipments will quickly change from Wi-Fi 6/6E to Wi-Fi 7.”
Huawei believes it will deliver to carriers high-density access, video experience assurance and intelligent O&M with its proprietary Network Digital Map.
Meanwhile, to boost transport networks, Huawei is rolling out high-density 400GE covering metro and core to carry multiple 10Gbps connections. The vendor believes that its solution will enable “network servitisation, accelerate network resource monetisation, and increase revenue”.
Lastly, under its Hyper-Converged DCN solution, Huawei outlines that the computing power leasing service can help carriers achieve new growth in addition to IDC equipment room and private cloud services.
Specifically, Huawei uses an 800GE data center network (DCN) to provide “efficient computing power and plug-and-play” in order to reduce deployment time.
Looking ahead, Wang emphasises the company’s focus to “solve customer problems and bring more business value”. “We will, step-by-step, perfect our Net5.5G solutions for different industries,” he added.
