Dubai – Mubasher: Emirates Integrated Telecommunications Company (du) and Huawei completed the world's first high-performance 800G in Super C+L band over OptiX OSN 9800 Kepler and M Platform.
The new partnership will further enhance the customer experience for using high-speed 5G mobile and broadband home services, according to a press release.
Hasan Bulhoon Alshemeili, Head of Technology Planning at du, said: "Our partnership with Huawei in the high-performance 800G optical solution will unleash the fiber potential, marking an important step forward to fulfill our commitment to building the most-advanced optical network in UAE and positioning it as a regional hub of technology innovation."
The two companies joined forces to bolster the capability of high-performance 800G transmission with a span of 1,400 kilometres in the Super C+L band system.
The high-performance 800G solution is developed with a built-in high-baud rate bandwidth modulator and PBC non-linear compensation algorithm. It extends transmission distance by 20%, which in turn, enhances data transmission efficiency.
In 2023, the DFM-listed company witnessed 36.80% higher net profits at AED 1.66 billion, compared to AED 1.21 billion in 2022.
