spain, barcelona, February 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Broadband Development Conference (BDC) held during MWC Barcelona 2024 and organized by the World Broadband Association (WBBA) has concluded successfully. This year’s conference, themed “Evolution of Networks and the Transformation of Telcos into Technology Companies,” attracted more than 200 participants from carriers, device vendors, industry associations, standards bodies, and media organizations from around the world. They gathered to discuss topics such as the direction of next-generation network evolution and network technology. Innovation and successful business practices.
Leon WangThe president of Huawei’s data communications product line delivered a keynote speech entitled “Enabling Net5.5G and stimulating new growth.” Leon Wang “In response to the rising wave of digitalization and intelligence, Huawei has worked closely with industry partners to propose Net5.5G as the next generation network. Through industry joint efforts, Net5.5G has become the industry standard, Agreement was reached on key innovations and application scenarios: ubiquitous 10 Gbps connectivity, resilient ultra-broadband transport, hyperconverged data centers, comprehensive support for autonomous network self-optimization, and communications We enable operators to drive new business growth while upgrading and evolving their networks.”
Net5.5G is industry consensus and accelerates network evolution
Industry consensus is formed: in September 2022, OMDIA has released the Next Generation Network Evolution at the Industry Pace white paper, which aligns with industry goals in terms of technology evolution, application scenarios, and industry ecosystem. WBBA will also establish a Network Technology Working Group in 2023 to focus on network innovation, and is expected to release a white paper on network evolution in 2024.
The service scenario is clear. Net5.5G focuses on personal, home, and business services. Based on Wi-Fi 7 high-quality 10GE campus, 400GE ultra-broadband converged transport, and 800GE hyper-converged data center, Net5.5G implements end-to-end network upgrades and experiences upgrade requirements for emerging services in various scenarios. satisfy. .
Standard pace confirmed: IETF, IEEE, and other standards organizations have conducted comprehensive standards efforts related to next-generation network technologies such as SRv6, Wi-Fi 7, and 800GE.
Acceleration of commercial development:Currently, more than 30 carriers and enterprises have started deploying Net5.5G next-generation network evolution and upgrades.
Leon Wang He called on industry partners to focus on Net5.5G network technology innovation, accelerate the commercial deployment of Net5.5G network, and cooperate to make the industry ecosystem flourish.
