With the cancellation of Mobile World Congress 2020 — over health concerns related to the corona virus outbreak — just 12 days before it was due to take place, thousands of ICT professionals suddenly found that months and months of planning, and millions of dollars in budget spent, were seemingly laid to waste. Huawei was no exception in this regard. Scheduled to appear at MWC for only the second time (the event has traditionally been more of a focus for Huawei’s Carrier Business Group), Huawei’s Enterprise Business Group (EBG) suddenly found itself challenged to find a new way to share the industry insights and updates that it had been planning to present.

As we continue to embed digital technologies in our work and in our homes at an unprecedented rate, the world economy stands at a new tipping point. According to market research firm IDC, by 2023 the global economy will reach digital supremacy — the point at which products and services provided by digitally transformed enterprises will account for more than half of total global GDP.

Urbanization is accelerating across the globe, with an increasing number of people living and working in cities. In an effort to match this trend, governments in the Middle East have adopted various policies ranging from greenfield developments touted as future cities (such as NEOM in Saudi Arabia), to accelerating urban digital transformation (Doha), and incorporating a 'happiness' oriented mindset (Dubai). Infrastructure investments lie at the heart of all such efforts, but they are capital-intensive and time-consuming. Therefore, future plans need to accommodate for much longer-term growth, addressing the huge volume of users as well as their evolving requirements.

A few days ago the classic debate over who is the world's capital of Fintech again hit the Twitterverse as it does periodically. Two of my friends got into it in a jovial manner, but it belies a continued debate that has been going on for the better part of a decade now. Even PM Boris Johnson got into the debate back in 2014-2015 saying London had become a true "world centre of Fintech". London has given birth to some very impressive Fintech's and the Mayor of London's unfailing support (both in the guise of Johnson and Sadiq Khan) has been instrumental in the city's strong Fintech culture. But how might we measure that innovation, that success in order to benchmark the world's #1 Fintech city?

In recent years, Huawei's consumer device business has been growing quickly, attracting the attention of most people worldwide. Due to this fast-paced growth, numerous people have even overlooked Huawei's strong presence in the carrier network and enterprise businesses. In fact, Huawei has secured the top spot in the global carrier network business, and its enterprise business has made remarkable progress. With unmatched technological innovation, Huawei has made numerous achievements and will continue to reap more success.

Niektóre technologie, z których korzystamy dosłownie od dziesięcioleci, wykazują oznaki, że nie są w stanie sprostać wyzwaniom związanym z rosnącą przepustowością i gęstością urządzeń. Nowe usługi, takie jak Wi-Fi 6, zwiększają zapotrzebowanie na większą przepustowość, zwłaszcza w przypadku połączeń typu backhaul. Miedziane kable Ethernet są doskonałym przykładem tego, gdzie świetna technologia zaczyna wpadać w surowe granice fizyki. Aby osiągnąć nawet 10 gigabitowych prędkości, należy zachować szczególną ostrożność przy grubych, mniej elastycznych kablach i ograniczeniach odległości do 100 metrów dla prawidłowo zainstalowanych systemów okablowania (Cat6a lub Cat7). Przy wzroście przepustowości do 40 Gb/s, 100 Gb/s i dalej staje się to przedmiotem wielu dyskusji na temat tego, w jaki sposób wspieramy rozwój sieci, zwłaszcza w nowych konstrukcjach. Nikt nie chce ponosić kosztów modernizacji okablowania sieciowego budynku w ciągu kilku lat od jego ukończenia.
