Telecom network vendor Huawei announced its 100th contract for the Huawei NE5000E 400G core router deployment on an IP backbone network.
Huawei did not name the client.
The company launched the 400G routing platform one year ago in August 2013.
In the last one year, the company achieved several milestones.
For instance, Huawei deployed the industry’s first 400G IP backbone network for Mobily in Saudi Arabia. Over the past year, telecom operators such as MegaFon Russia, Jazztel Spain, True and DTAC in Thailand, Etisalat UAE, as well as China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom, have deployed the 400G router with better performance results.
The Huawei NE5000E-based platform is compatible with three generations of service boards: 100G, 400G, and 1T. System capacity can be upgraded from 3.2 Tbit/s to 32 Tbit/s and the super 2+8 router cluster system can achieve a capacity of up to 128 Tbit/s.
Zha Jun, president of Huawei’s Fixed Network product line, said: “In the face of the growing Internet boom, we will strengthen our investments in ultra-broadband networks and roll out advanced technologies and innovative solutions to facilitate service evolutions and create larger value for our customers.”
The company said the Huawei NE5000E 400G core router is now running on 66 backbone networks and has continued to operate fault free for over one year.
