F5.5G All-Optical 10Gbps and Premium Transmission Have Arrived

The commercial construction of F5.5G
gears up to embrace the imminent
intelligent world. In November 2023, the
European Telecommunications Standards
Institute (ETSI) released the F5.5G
standard. Innovative technologies like 50G
PON, Wi-Fi 7, FTTR+X, 400G, all-optical
cross-connect (OXC), and Hybrid ASON
have rapidly matured, showing that F5.5G
is in extensive commercial use.

The Industry is at a stage where
accelerating the commercial use of F5.5G
achieves experience enhancement to
stimulate intelligent applications through
all-optical 10Gbps; breaking connectivity
boundaries to expand new services for
homes and enterprises; and transcending
geographical limitations to connect and
collaborate immense intelligent computing Li Peng, Huawei's Senior Vice President and President of ICT Sales & Service, delivering a speech
