Several partners and customers came together at the recently held Global Optical Summit in Baku, where digital communications technology company Huawei highlighted the benefits of F5G-A (F5G Advanced) technologies for enabling businesses to unlock the full potential of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and cloud computing.

The summit, held under the theme ‘F5G-A, the Foundation for Industrial Intelligence’, highlighted the critical role of advanced networks in driving digital transformation and industrial intelligence in the Middle East and Central Asia region.

Derek Hao, president of the enterprise business, Huawei Middle East & Central Asia, emphasized the company’s commitment to collaborating with partners and customers to implement digitalization initiatives throughout the region.

“The development of optical technology has accelerated the progress of industry digitalization, with the trend of fiber-in, copper-out becoming the mainstream in campus networks. As a leader in the optical industry, Huawei is committed to working with partners and customers to implement digitalization initiatives throughout the Middle East and Central Asia region,” he stated.

Unlocking potential

Today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape makes it important for businesses to recognize the critical importance of high-speed, reliable, and intelligent connectivity in unlocking the full potential of emerging technologies such as AI, IoT and cloud computing. Advanced networks, particularly those powered by F5G-A technologies, are proving to be the backbone of this digital revolution, providing the necessary infrastructure to support the seamless integration of these technologies into business processes.

Huawei’s launch of F5G-A products and solutions addresses three key trends in the optical industry. ‘Fiber-in copper-out’ focuses on the transition from copper networks to optical networks, which has gained momentum in the global regions over the past decade. Meanwhile, ‘fgOTN-in SDH-out’ addresses the limitations of SDH (synchronous digital hierarchy) networks in the intelligent era, with the new-generation standard fgOTN set to replace existing SDH networks and lay the foundation for intelligent industry transformation. The third trend, ‘Optical-sensing-in hard-work-out’, leverages optical fiber sensing and AI analysis to revolutionize perimeter security and pipeline inspection, enabling industry personnel to move from outdoor on-site work to indoor offices, improving efficiency and working conditions.

Innovation is key

Continuously exploring innovative optical technologies and products to enable industrial intelligence, Huawei has launched full-scenario home broadband solutions, such as FTTR and Trouble-Free ONT, to help internet service providers (ISPs) improve user experience and reduce operational expenses. For enterprise campus networks, Huawei introduced the next-generation FTTO 2.0 Solution, utilizing XGS-PON Pro and Wi-Fi 7 technologies to achieve 12.5G/25G to rooms and 10G to access points, creating a green, 10 Gbps all-optical campus.

Huawei also recognizes the importance of collaboration and knowledge sharing in driving the adoption of advanced networks. The launch of the OptiX Club membership program in the Middle East and Central Asia, announced by Gavin Chen, vice-president of the optical domain of Huawei’s enterprise network marketing and solution sales department, aims to promote industry data intelligence in the region by building technical circles in the optical industry.

“Since 2022, OptiX Club has achieved excellent results in Middle East and Central Asia. Now, we are taking OptiX Club to the next step with the launch of OptiX Club Community. We expect optical industry elites from the Middle East and Central Asia to join us,” Chen said.
