These products have been recognized and recommended by third-party organizations and customers for their performance, large capacity, speed, and long service life to meet the needs of customers.

OptiXtrans DC908 builds Data Center Interconnect (DCI) networks with large bandwidth and simplified architecture

OptiXtrans DC908 features a large capacity of 800Gbit/s per wavelength supporting flexible configuration between 100G and 800G, and future-proof Super C+L technology to achieve 220 wavelengths. This product helps enterprise customers cope with the challenges of massive data flows in the cloud era, continuously reduce the cost per bit, maximize the value of optical fibers, and improve customer’s ROI. A single 2U device can support up to 12.8Tb/s ultra-high integration. In terms of architecture, OptiXtrans DC908 supports both optical and electrical integration, and converges five kinds of boards into a single one, reducing device footprints and saving equipment room space. Powered by the network-level web GUI, automatic fiber discovery, and automatic commissioning technologies, it allows IT technicians to deploy new services in 8 minutes with simple mouse clicks. Meanwhile, the firm’s AI technology enables intelligent network O&M , which can automatically predict more than 60% of gradual failures and reduce false alarms through automated analysis of the failure origins.

SmartLi UPS digitalize power with always-on, easy- use, and value-added

• Reliable and always-on: Digitalization ensures end-to-end reliability. The device uses the industry’s secure battery cells. The UPS, the battery array, and the battery pack form a three-layer management system to eliminate perceived blind spots. SmartLi has a built-in current balancing control module to achieve battery module-level fault tolerance design and eliminate single points of failure.
• On-demand deployment: Digitalization recreates simple and efficient user experience. O&M operates proactively instead of passively by adopting iPower intelligent management. The UPS modular design with 97% of high efficiency allows on-demand deployment and expansion of power modules. SmartLi supports mixed use of old and new batteries, which enables simultaneous deployment and expansion of battery and UPS capacity.
• Li-ion in, lead-acid out phasing to create more value: Compared to the traditional lead-acid battery UPS solutions, SmartLi UPS has a service life of up to 15 years and reduces the power system footprint by 70%, giving more space for other IT devices. The battery module can balance power consumption between the peak and non-peak times to slash customers’ power costs and save energy, bringing more value to customers.

Next-gen OceanStor Dorado, all-flash storage recommended by ESG Lab

The next-gen OceanStor Dorado all-flash storage, as an end-to-end high-speed platform, achieves 20 million IO/s and 0.1ms latency. The interconnected and SmartMatrix architecture allows a single system to tolerate the failure of up to seven controllers (out of eight), ensuring the continuity of core enterprise services. The AI-based deep learning improves the read cache hit ratio by 50%, and the cloud-based AI enables full-lifecycle intelligent Operations and Maintenance, making storage system maintenance easier.

The latest test results from ESG Lab reveals that next-gen OceanStor Dorado delivers the fastest 0.081ms response latency, 100% load balancing, and 78% savings of TCO in 5 years. It also recommends the next-gen all-flash storage is the solution to help enterprises improve performance and reduce the TCO, and OceanStor Dorado is a good choice. This system can be used in database, virtualization, and large-scale VDI deployment scenarios to help enterprises unleash data values and accelerate digital and intelligent transformation.

Powered by Huawei 5G, AirEngine Wi-Fi 6 becomes first Wi-Fi with peak rate exceeding 100G

The company has launched the AirEngine 8700, AirEngine 6700, and AirEngine 5700 series to cover all indoor and outdoor application scenarios. The air interface rate of the AirEngine 8760 reaches 10.75 Gbit/s, twice as much as an industry’s next best offering. This is an world’s first Wi-Fi product that has an air interface rate of over 10Gbit/s, setting a new benchmark for Wi-Fi 6 performance. The revolutionary product can improve network experience in various scenarios, such as high-density access (e.g. offices, conference rooms, stadiums, terminal buildings, and train stations), HD video applications (e.g. VR/AR teaching and 4K/8K videoconferencing), campus mobile production (e.g. AGV robots), IoT+Wi-Fi converged access (e.g. shopping malls, supermarkets, and smart campuses), and outdoor public network services (e.g. town squares and streets).
