Optical-AI Convergence: Huawei Launches Upgraded F5G-A All-Optical Network Across Latin America to Accelerate Industrial Intelligence

— Huawei Global Optical Summit (GOS) 2026 Latin America Successfully Held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

[Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, May 19, 2026] Recently, Huawei GOS 2026 Latin America was successfully held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The event attracted more than 300 industry leaders, technical experts, and partners from countries including Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia. At the event, Huawei launched its new F5G-A series products and solutions for Latin America. By fully upgrading these products and solutions for scenarios such as industry communication network, all-optical campus, ISP, and optical sensing, Huawei aims to accelerate AI adoption across industries through all-optical networks.

Currently, Latin America is entering a critical period of industrial intelligence. Jacky Gao, CEO of Huawei Brazil, stated in his speech: "Optical technology has evolved beyond its role as a communication medium to become the cornerstone of intelligent digitalization in the AI era. In Brazil and Latin America market, Huawei remains customer-driven, working closely with governments, ISPs, electric power, transportation, education, and other customers and partners to advance 'Optical + AI' innovation and establish benchmark applications across industries."

For the ISP sector, Huawei has launched Wi-Fi 7 3+3+3 series ONTs and FTTR products. Their standout feature is full support for the 6 GHz frequency band. With core advantages including balanced performance and cost, enhanced speed and concurrency, and upgraded intelligent experiences, they help to propel smart home networks into a new intelligent era.

For substations, Huawei has launched the smart substation solution and a series of new products. With multi-dimensional detection, heterogeneous network integration, and flexible access, this solution enables all-scenario status sensing, full IoT coverage, and unified access to diverse sensing terminals, thereby building a "transparent station" IoT system.

For campuses, Huawei has upgraded its Fiber to the Office (FTTO) solution from "pure connectivity" to iFTTO solution that integrates networking, sensing, computing power, and management. The launch of the sensing- and IoT-capable all-optical APs OptiXstar W857I and OptiXstar W817I provides a unified foundation for smart campus transformation.

For conveyor inspection in industries such as building materials, mining, logistics, smelting, and electric power, Huawei has launched the fiber sensing solution for conveyor idler health prediction. Using fiber sensing, this solution enables unmanned inspections and real-time detection of abnormal idler sounds, achieving zero missed detections.

For government, electric power, and transportation sectors with high-security demands, Huawei has launched the OTN communication-quantum encryption integration solution. Featuring the industry's first integrated quantum key distribution (QKD) board paired with the OptiXtrans E6600, the solution achieves integration of quantum encryption and classical optical communication. This provides a simplified, efficient, and trustworthy communication foundation against quantum threats.

Optical networks already underpin digital and intelligent transformation across Latin America. At the summit, Brazilian ISP TecPar spoke about how FTTH optimized access networks and Premium Wi-Fi improved user experience, and how that enabled TecPar to rapidly grow into a leading home broadband provider in Brazil. TecPar also outlined plans to build backbone and data center networks to accelerate B2B business growth. Huawei's partner TechChannel shared its FTTO deployment experience, highlighting that the FTTO solution is particularly well-suited for hotels, education campuses, and integrated buildings, making it the optimal choice for future smart campus networks.

Looking ahead, Huawei will continue to innovate, accelerate optical-AI convergence, and deepen cooperation with industry customers and partners to help Latin America accelerate its journey into the intelligent era.
