Huawei today informed that it will release the fiber-based Wi-Fi networking solution – FTTR (Fiber To The Room) gigabit all-optical room solution at the Mobile World Congress 2022 (MWC) in Spain.
Huawei’s FTTR gigabit all-optical room solution extends fibers to every room, leading the newest optical network revolution. Fibers are recognized as the fastest transmission media in the industry. Fibers are recognized as the fastest transmission media in the industry and can achieve 10Gbps or even 100Gbps transmission capability.
Fibers deployed in the entire home can be upgraded to 10Gbps in the future, without the need of re-cabling. Low cost: The fiber industry is mature and the market is stable. The average price of fibers is 50 percent lower than that of network cables, reducing the reconstruction cost.
The size of fibers is about 15 percent of that of normal network cables. Fibers are thin and easy to be routed through pipes.
Huawei will also build a gigabit Wi-Fi experience center consisting of two exhibition points: FTTR-Home for home scenarios and FTTR-SME for enterprise scenarios. Online service scenarios, such as cloud VR, remote conferencing, IPTV, and 8K HD videos, will be set up to enable users to experience smooth gigabit Wi-Fi networks onsite.
Huawei’s FTTR gigabit all-optical room solution has set off a boom in China. Chinese operators released FTTR services and launched packages in 65 provinces and cities in China last year. Up to now, the number of FTTR users in China has exceeded 150,000. In addition, 20 operators outside China have started pilot projects.
