Huawei's NG WAN Solution Set to Revolutionize Operator Growth in the AI Era

Huawei's NG WAN Solution: A New Era for Telecommunications

On October 13, 2026, during the Net5.5G Smart IP Network Summit held at UBBF 2026, John Cai, Vice President of Huawei's Data Communication Product Line, delivered an insightful keynote speech underscoring the vast opportunities presented by artificial intelligence (AI) in an uncertain future. He announced the extensive commercial launch of Huawei's NG WAN Solution, which signifies a major step towards the complete commercialization of this innovative technology. Huawei aims to foster a secure and resilient foundation for industry stakeholders by continuously enhancing collaboration in this new AI era.

Multi-Layered Security: A Robust Defense System

Huawei's NG WAN Solution incorporates a multi-layered security system that encompasses device, connection, and service layers. At the device level, the innovative RDR solution, backed by Huawei's independent Threat Protection Units (TPUs) and a multi-modal behavior analysis algorithm, operates independently of the router's operating system to detect over 95% of threats and trace advanced persistent threats (APTs) within minutes. In the data plane, Huawei's proprietary NP technology coupled with intelligent flow recognition algorithms performs 11 traffic checks, identifying attacks within seconds and reducing DDoS risks by 90%. During a three-month testing phase, 324 attacks from eight different countries were thwarted by these TPUs in collaboration with one of China's leading operators.

At the connection layer, the PQC algorithm is supported across all Huawei devices and scenarios, enhancing encryption performance by 40%. Additionally, the industry's first integrated Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) solution allows for a three-channel integration, decreasing network deployment costs by 60% while surpassing the 80 km transmission distance limit. In a recent collaboration with a Macau operator, the world's first quantum-secured target network was introduced, leading to a remarkable 50% revenue increase from dedicated lines.

In the service layer, Huawei employs a "1+4" multi-layer defense system that reduces the response time to border DDoS attacks from one minute to under five seconds. The CT-SOC detects unknown threats with a 15% improvement rate, achieves a 100% detection rate for ransomware, and limits the handling time for threats to under 30 minutes.

Maximizing Lossless Computing Efficiency with AI Fabric

With the increasing presence of AI in core business areas, intelligent computing systems have become exceedingly sensitive to packet loss, which can reduce computing efficiency by up to 55% with even a mere 0.1% loss. Huawei's NG WAN Solution employs AI Fabric technology to enhance computing capacities through network optimizations. The simplified two-layer multi-plane architecture quadruples network scale while reducing hardware usage by 30%. Across the network, NPLB achieves a 98% connection usage rate, enhancing both training and extraction performance by over 7%. In terms of computing network synergy, the Starnet lossless algorithm has demonstrated zero packet loss over more than 1,000 km of transmission while achieving over 96% efficiency in long-distance computing. This performance allows operators to deliver experiences akin to local services, thereby accelerating growth in their business-to-business revenue.

Supporting a healthcare initiative, a Chinese telecom operator successfully deployed this solution, yielding a 30% reduction in hospital computing costs and a five-fold increase in average revenue per user (ARPU) for dedicated lines.
