Recently, the global analysis organization Omdia officially released the "Exceeding 100G Coherent Optical Equipment Port Market Share Report" for the fourth quarter of 2022. The report shows that ZTE ranked second in the global shipment of 200G ports in the fourth quarter of 2022. , the growth rate ranked first; 400G long haul port shipments ranked first in the year-on-year growth rate, achieving rapid growth in volume.
In the era of computing, with the continuous deepening of the digital transformation of the entire industry, the rapid expansion of the scale of global data centers, and the rapid development of new services such as cloud computing and VR/AR, optical networks, as the cornerstone of computing power networks, are facing huge bandwidth challenge. Therefore, how to increase the speed of the optical network without reducing the distance and ensure the transmission performance of the optical network has become the focus of the entire industry chain.
In order to solve the above problems, ZTE has launched a super 100G solution, which achieves higher system capacity of the network by increasing the baud rate, adopting high-order modulation, and spreading spectrum resources. While increasing the speed, the system guarantees the transmission performance of the business and reduces the power consumption of the system to meet the increasing bandwidth demand of the network.
Up to now, ZTE optical network products have been widely used in more than 100 countries around the world, and more than 600 100G/super 100G networks have been built, with a total construction mileage of more than 600,000 kilometers. Among them, ZTE will assist Turkey Mobile Turkcell to complete the industry's first OTN network deployment with 12THz ultra-wideband spectrum evolution capability in Turkey's fourth largest city Bursa in 2022, and assist China Mobile to complete the world's first 400G QPSK live network in early 2023 The pilot project achieved ultra-high-speed transmission with a total length of 2,808km, and at the same time completed the world's first terrestrial cable 5,616km limit transmission, creating a 400G QPSK non-electric relay network transmission distance record.
Relying on leading technical capabilities and outstanding progress in innovative practices, ZTE's large-capacity 400G ULH (Ultra-Long-Haul, Ultra-Long-Haul) transmission system was awarded the Optical Communication Annual Innovation by Lightwave, a well-known media in the global optical network field, in February 2023 jackpot.
ZTE has invested heavily in R&D and innovation every quarter, and has always insisted on independent R&D and technological innovation, and has continued to take root. In the future, ZTE will further accelerate content cooperation with industry chain partners, jointly build a solid optical network foundation in the era of digital computing, accelerate the evolution of next-generation optical communication technologies, and continue to promote the vigorous development of the digital economy.
