Huawei announced that 53 operators worldwide
have deployed its 400G core router over the past five months. The mass
deployment of the router, which focuses on addressing
big data challenges, kicks off the 400G era for global IP backbone
networks.
The
proliferation of new services and applications in the cloud era has
created an unprecedented digital flood, calling for high-speed transport
to deliver anytime
communication and first-class service experience.

NE5000E is the industry's first 400G core router deployed on a large
scale. With a capacity of up to 2 Tbit/s per slot, 6.4 Tbit/s per
chassis, and 32 Tbit/s
per system, NE5000E can meet service requirements for the next decade.
In addition, according to the European Advanced Networking Test Center
(EANTC), the overall power consumption of Huawei's 400G platform is less
than 1 W/G, meaning high energy efficiency
and low power costs.
Thanks
to persistent R&D and innovation in the past 17 years, Huawei has
made the leap to leadership in the core router field. In 2012, Huawei
launched the world's
first commercial 400G solution, which adopts resiliently distributed
network operating systems and solar cell technology. In 2013, Huawei
broke new ground with mass commercial 400G rollouts worldwide.
In
August 2013, Huawei deployed a 400G IP backbone network for Mobily in
Saudi Arabia, and upgraded IP backbone networks for True and DTAC in
Thailand to assure UMTS
service experience. In October 2013, Russian operator MegaFon and
Huawei rolled out Europe's first 400G backbone network, a future-proof
network that enhances service experience for tens of millions of MBB
users in Russia. In November 2013, Spain’s fixed network
operator Jazztel took the lead in deploying Huawei's 400G solution in
Western Europe. Huawei NE5000E core routers are in service on 53
backbone networks across five continents in more than 30 countries.
"The
next wave of the information revolution is coming. To cope with this
digital tsunami, operators are looking to Huawei's 400G core router. The
router delivers
ultra-high bandwidth at low costs, and features reliable performance,
commercial maturity, and simple O&M. As a trusted partner, Huawei
will continue to focus on customer-centric innovation and industrial
challenges to deliver ultra wideband network solutions
that are more efficient, smarter, easier-to-manage, and value-added,
helping operators succeed in the big data era," said Zha Jun, President
of Huawei’s Fixed Network Business Unit.
Quick
service expansion in the big data era expedites the development of
high-end router technology. As an industry leader in TB-level routing
technology, Huawei unveiled
the industry's first 1T router line card in April 2013, with a
switching capacity double that of a 400G line card. In October 2013,
this cutting-edge 1T line card received the InfoVision Award from the
Broadband World Forum.
