Huawei announces over fifty 5G commercial contracts secured and over 200,000 Modules shipped

The 5th Huawei Asia-Pacific Innovation Day was held in Chengdu, China and is themed “Innovation Enables Asia-Pacific Digitisation”. More than 200 representatives from government, industry and academia of Asia-Pacific countries and regions got together to discuss innovative 5G technologies and applications, sustainable development, as well as technology, humanity, and nature.

Deploying 5G across the Asia Pacific faster

South Korea is the world’s first country to realise large-scale commercial use of 5G and has become the global benchmark. Since the rollout in early April, the number of 5G subscribers in South Korea exceeded 2 million. Similarly, China has built a large-scale 5G network for pilot commercial use.

The country’s three major carriers have deployed 5G networks in cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Chengdu. The tested downlink rate is as high as 1 Gbps, which means it takes only seconds to download an HD movie in 1080P.

Huawei has secured over fifty 5G commercial contracts worldwide and shipped over 200,000 Massive MIMO AAUs. With rich experience in 5G pilot commercial use and active exploration of 5G innovative applications, Huawei is committed to providing the safest and most advanced 5G products and solutions, as well as application scenarios.

More 5G-enabled innovative applications

China Mobile Sichuan and Huawei launch a 5G stereo-coverage network, which consists of a basic coverage layer, a capacity experience layer and indoor coverage for high-value scenarios to achieve seamless coverage of 5G. Huawei has partnered with carriers and other industry partners to demonstrate various innovative industry applications, including 5G+VR, 5G+8K video, 5G+drones, 5G telemedicine and 5G ambulances.

Technology for good

New technologies like 5G, cloud, IoT and AI are shaping a world where all things will be sensing, connected and intelligent. The intelligent world is coming to all individuals, all companies, and all industries. Technologies are making the world a better place.

Huawei Innovation Day has been held in different cities, including London, Milan, Munich, Paris, Singapore, Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Dubai, and São Paulo. Following the principles of openness, innovation, collaboration and shared success, Huawei is committed to bringing digital to every person, home and organisation for a fully connected, intelligent world.
