IDC analysts, Anhui Telecom, Guangdong Mobile, Ningxia Telecom, Turkcell customers, and Huawei guests gave keynote speeches

Differentiated networks will become a competitive advantage for operators

With the rapid development of digitalization in the ICT industry, the increasing popularity of 5G services, the surge in online education during the epidemic, and new businesses such as public cloud services have put forward higher requirements for network infrastructure. Lu Libo, President of Huawei Network Marketing and Solution Sales Department, believes: "In the next five years, the digitalization process of all walks of life will gradually accelerate, and the differentiated demands of individuals, families, and enterprises for connectivity will become increasingly strong. Huawei recommends that operators change their business models from selling standard, best-effort services to selling differentiated, SLA-guaranteed services to realize the monetization of network value, which will become a long board for operators in the face of fierce competition."

At the meeting, Mr. Matt Eastwood, a senior analyst from IDC, gave a keynote speech on "Digital Transformation, Network First", and suggested that operators plan and build future target networks in advance based on the KAI (Key Architecture Index) model to meet the various stringent demands of the industry's digital transformation.

Embracing F5G, creating ubiquitous optical connections, and helping operators enter the era of experience dividends

Jin Yuzhi, President of Huawei's Transmission and Access Network Product Line, said: "Optical connectivity is the foundation for ensuring high-quality service experience. Fiber is wealth, fiber is the future, and fiber connects everything. Huawei helps mobile operators efficiently build FTTH networks and create ubiquitous optical connectivity through the AirPON solution. Through intelligent optical modems and intelligent distributed OLTs, we ensure the ultimate E2E experience of home services and increase operators' home business revenue. Through the OTN premium private line solution, we help operators provide high-quality networking private lines and cloud private lines, helping operators achieve rapid and healthy development of government and enterprise services."

At the meeting, Mr. Lv Pin, Deputy General Manager of Anhui Telecom, shared the strategy and practice of providing users with whole-house smart services such as "E-Surfing Home Security" on the basis of consolidating the quality experience of whole-house Wi-Fi. Mr. Cai Weiwen, Director of the Board of Directors and Deputy General Manager of Guangdong Mobile, shared many innovative experiences of Guangdong Mobile's all-optical network. Through the construction of the all-optical network, Cloud VR, OTV (Optics TV), OTN boutique private network and 5G high-speed rail services have been commercialized throughout the province, providing a better communication platform for new industries, new formats and new models in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Full-service intelligent IP network achieves deterministic SLA and promotes business success in the 5G and cloud era

As the network cornerstone of the 5G and cloud era, IP networks must provide high-quality full-service bearer services. Hu Kewen, President of Huawei's Data Communication Product Line, said: "In the 5G and cloud era, IP networks need to have large bandwidth, committed SLAs, and high availability, and achieve the transformation from best-effort consumer bearer networks to deterministic SLA production bearer networks. Huawei's intelligent IP network based on the NetEngine series routers realizes intelligent ultra-broadband, intelligent connection, and intelligent operation and maintenance, meeting the business bearer needs of thousands of industries and millions of enterprises in 5G cloud computing, and helping operators achieve commercial success."

As a representative of the best practices of operators, Mr. Luo Rui, Deputy General Manager of Ningxia Telecom, shared at the meeting how Huawei's intelligent IP private line solution provides FIRST private networks for users in government affairs, medical care, education, etc., and achieves seamless connection between high-quality networks and the cloud. Mr. Faruk Ekici, Transmission Director of Turkcell, shared how Turkcell builds a converged and programmable 5G Ready IP bearer network, and looks forward to continuing to lead the technology based on the next generation of IP technology.

iMaster NCE accelerates FBB network autonomy and enables agile business

The future will be an intelligent era where everything is sensed and connected. High-quality experience assurance and intelligent bearing of all services are inseparable from the automation and intelligence of the network. Lu Hongju, President of Huawei's Public Development Department, pointed out: "Autonomous driving networks have become a consensus in the field of industry standards and the goal of operator transformation. As an intelligent management and control system for autonomous driving networks in the FBB field, Huawei iMaster NCE focuses on F5G and 5G value scenarios, and gradually realizes automatic, self-healing, and self-optimizing autonomous networks. On the one hand, through the visibility of SLA before sales, controllable during sales, and guaranteed after sales, differentiated SLA monetization is achieved to enable business agility; on the other hand, proactive preventive operation and maintenance is achieved based on AI and big data analysis, which improves the quality of network operation and enables efficient operation and maintenance."

Quality life requires quality networks, and quality networks will bring new business opportunities to operators. Huawei Networks is willing to work with operators and industry colleagues to seize the opportunity of ICT digital transformation, help operators build differentiated, SLA-guaranteed quality networks, create differentiated competitiveness, achieve a positive business cycle, and create a better digital world!
