Building the future of connectivity in the Middle East and Central Asia

As the Middle East and Central Asia accelerate their digital transformation journeys, connectivity remains a foundational element. Alex Xu, President of Huawei’s Carrier Business for the Middle East and Central Asia, shares insights on how these technologies will reshape last-mile connectivity, bridge the digital divide, and contribute to the region’s digital economy.

While FWA has existed since the 4G era, its true potential has emerged with 5G. As Alex Xu highlights, the 5G-A and AI era is exciting for FWA. “FWA in the 5G era offers a compelling alternative to traditional fixed-line connections,” Xu explains. “With enhanced capacity, AI capabilities, and network flexibility, FWA is well-positioned to address last-mile connectivity challenges and connect the unconnected.”

Increased capacity in 5G-A delivers high speeds and low latency, making FWA a more viable competitor to fixed-line options. AI-driven optimization further supports FWA’s appeal, ensuring dynamic network adjustments to meet changing user demands. “Cost-effective and more capable, 5G-A FWA can also seamlessly integrate with mobile services and, in the future, evolve into a smart home hub,” says Xu.

The convergence of mobile and fixed solutions will allow operators to provide consumers with a reliable, flexible, and seamless connectivity experience. “By 2030, we envision 5G FWA as an essential part of the connectivity ecosystem in the Middle East, particularly for remote areas,” Xu emphasizes.

For Huawei, FWA is more than just technology; it is a strategic approach to expanding digital inclusion across the Middle East. The company is actively developing industry-specific 5G FWA use cases, from oil and gas to remote education, highlighting the benefits of reliable wireless connectivity for various sectors. “Our focus is on deploying cost-effective CPEs, optimizing network experiences, and supporting the region’s sustainability goals through energy-efficient solutions,” Xu explains.

Huawei is also introducing advanced digital management tools to streamline network setup and maintenance for telcos, ensuring a robust, user-centric approach to FWA deployment. “We aim to be more than a technology provider; we seek to be a strategic partner to telcos in this region, supporting their long-term business goals,” he adds.

Fiber broadband remains indispensable for digital infrastructure across the Middle East and Central Asia. With gigabit packages now available in countries like Qatar and the UAE, high-speed broadband has rapidly become a catalyst for regional digital economies. Xu notes, “Fiber broadband provides a solid foundation for applications ranging from high-definition video and online gaming to remote work and education.”

Governments in the Middle East are instrumental in driving fiber deployments through targeted industrial policies, such as Saudi Arabia’s 10Gbps Society whitepaper, UAE’s 10G Nation ambition, and Bahrain’s NTP6 initiative. According to Xu, these policies encourage operators to expand fiber networks by offering incentives like tax deductions and financial subsidies. “Fiber broadband is not just about connectivity; it’s about boosting the digital economy and unlocking new opportunities for innovation and growth,” he explains.

From AI-driven FWA advancements to high-speed fiber broadband, Huawei envisions a connected future in the Middle East and Central Asia that is inclusive, resilient, and technologically advanced. With ongoing collaborations with governments, telcos, and industry stakeholders, the company is committed to transforming connectivity for millions across the region.

“The potential for FWA in the 5G-A era is immense,” Xu concludes. “Together with our partners, Huawei is dedicated to bridging the digital divide and enabling a truly connected society.”
