ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international
provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology
solutions for the Mobile Internet, today announced that in 2014,
the annual shipments of ZTE 100G optical transport network (OTN)
products exceeded 10,000 units. This increase in market share
ranked at number one in the world.
ZTE has deployed more than 150 commercial projects of 100G
technology, with the total line length exceeding 100,000km. ZTE
100G OTN products are deployed by leading operators in
Asia-Pacific, Europe, and Latin America. These operators include
TMA Austria, Telefonica Peru, Telkom Indonesia, PCCW Hong Kong,
China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom and serve 4G wireless
networks, wired broadband and data center services, providing
super-large-bandwidth transport platforms and advanced
ultra-high-speed solutions.
“Based on a deep understanding of operator demands, ZTE provides
high-speed network solutions from the aggregation, backbone,
transmission and IP layers for global customers, to help operators
build fast, flexible, secure and smart transport networks that
feature large bandwidth and high efficiency,” said Xu Ming, Vice
President of ZTE.
According to OVUM’s latest optical network (ON) product market
report, the rolling Q4 market share of ZTE’s 100G products was 11.3
percent, the largest growth in the industry. The same share of ZTE
ON products was 13.3 percent, achieving the largest growth
worldwide. ZTE’s global market share remained in the top two in the
world, whereas in the largest regional ON market, the Asia-Pacific
area, ZTE’s market share grew to number one. ZTE also stands as the
largest multi-service aggregation equipment supplier and third
largest wavelength division-multiplexing (WDM)/converged packet
optical transport (CPO-T) equipment supplier in the world.
By leading advancements in the OTN field, especially 100G OTN,
ZTE has won a number of industry awards. In 2012, ZTE deployed the
national commercial network for T-Mobile Austria using a WDM
automatic switch optical network (WASON) intelligent OTN solution.
This deployment won the “Backbone Optical Network Innovation Award”
from Global Telecommunications Business (GTB). In 2013, ZTE’s 100G
products won “Best Optical Product – 100G” at the 15th annual WDM
& Next Generation Optical Networking forum.
ZTE has also set a number of new world records in fields other
than 100G transmission technology including 400G/1T. In November
2014, ZTE announced that it had set the world record for using only
erbium doped optical fiber amplifiers (EDFA) to transmit 16×1 Tb/s
signals in full configuration at C band for 3,500km in a test from
the 863 Project. In March 2014, using its patented technology, ZTE
successfully transmitted 440Gb/s single-carrier
polarization-multiplexed quadrature-phase-shift keyed (PM QPSK)
signals of 20 optical channels for 3,600km in single-mode fibers
when the spectrum efficiency is increased to 4bit/s/Hz, setting a
world record in 400G high-speed transmission field. In October
2013, ZTE and China Telecom jointly completed a real-time system
experiment for T-bit ultra-long haul (ULH) optical transmission and
set the world record of 3,200km in real-time transmission.
Currently the real-time optical transmission system has the longest
transmission distance and highest transmission rate.
