Stc and Huawei signed a MOU on all-optical strategic partnership
Lately, during the MWC2023 in Barcelona, Spain Saudi Telecom Company (Stc) and Huawei shake hands to form an all-optical strategic partnership and signed a Memorandum of Understanding towards the F5.5G…..!!
Diplomacy holds regarding the consensus and product and solution cooperation under the F5G and F5.5G industry standards. The MOU frames and objectives to stimulate the implementation of Stc’s digital transformation strategy. This is through building an all-optical network that meets the requirements of ultra-large bandwidth, ultra-high speed, premium experience, and network autonomous driving.
Stc and Huawei signed a MOU on an all-optical strategic partnership
Well, in order to define the core capabilities of F5.5G. ETSI furl the Fixed 5th Generation Advanced and Beyond white paper last year in September 2022. The F5.5G era brought four major changes that have been listed below.
- User experience reaches 10Gbps: F5.5G introduces next-generation technologies such as FTTR, Wi-Fi 7, 50G PON, 800G, etc., to achieve 10Gbps everywhere;
- Service boundaries are beyond connections: optical fiber sensing technology is applied to scenarios such as fire and earthquake early warning, gas detection, water quality detection, etc.;
- Network assurance: upgraded from telecom grade to industrial grade, and industrial digital upgrade is accelerated;
- The network is more environmentally friendly: optical fiber transmission technology can reduce energy consumption by 90% compared with EXC, and full-optical access technology can reduce energy consumption by 80% compared with copper.
Taking numerous futuristic goals and climbing up to tech growth Stc and Huawei will boost their cooperation in certain areas. Which includes technology research, technology testing, commercial deployment, and publicity, including 50G PON, FTTR, 400G/800G, and ultra-high speed 1.2Tbps WDM, OXC, Alps-WDM, and form a joint team to innovate in the F5.5G field. It will fully support Stc’s fixed network construction.
Stc Infrastructure Design GM Hisham A.Alabdaly said:
“with the signing of the F5.5 MOU, Stc will better promote end-to-end innovation and commercialization of fixed networks and maintain a leading position in the fixed network industry.”
Richard Jin, President of Huawei’s Optical Business Product Line, said,
“Huawei will work with Stc to continuously make technological breakthroughs and product innovations on the road to F5.5G development, help Stc network continuously improve user experience and network operation efficiency, create greater business value, and support Saudi vision 2030.”
Simultaneously, Stc expressed its willingness to join ETSI/WBBA and other standards or industry organizations. Also, this is to provide value cases, technologies, and architectures for F5.5G standards, and enhance its industry influence.

Recently, Chinese astronauts have taken the flagship Huawei P50 Pro to space initiated to share some selfies of up there….!! Huawei P50 Pro smartphone in space is just rock, specifically for the International Space Station (via Huawei Central). The dual camera ring design of the phone is clearly visible in the images. As a Chinese astronaut shared some pictures from the Space Station. Which showcased the P50 Pro in his hand taking the phone there.
Also, the phone is pictured within a controlled atmosphere of the space station. Take it to outer space and it will likely destroy itself with its own heat due to lack of cooling. These images might suggest that the smartphone is capable of functioning even in space, but that is unlikely. Modern smartphones are designed to be used in Earth’s atmosphere. While certain functions like the camera and touch may work. There is no chance for signal reception and calling.
The Huawei P50 Pro runs on HarmonyOS and has a 6.6-inch OLED display with 1.07 billion colors, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2700 x 1228p resolution123. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 4G processor with 8 CPU cores. Also, a maximum clock speed of 2840 MHz14. It has a 4360mAh battery that supports 66W wired and 50W wireless charging1.
Additionally, it has a quad camera setup on the back with a 50MP main sensor and a 13MP selfie camera on the front1. It is dust and water-resistant up to 1.5m for 30 minutes3. Also, it measures 158.8 x 72.8 x 8.5 mm and weighs 195g235. It comes in black and gold colors.
In the Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer for Primary Storage for its OceanStor Dorado all-flash storage, Huawei was recognized as a 2023 Customers’ Choice. That too with a 100% user recommendation rate and a full score of 5.0 based on 214 reviews, Huawei steal the heart of customers.
Showcasing the Huawei OceanStor Dorado all-flash storage played a part in the evaluation process. Covering industries from a wide range of economic sectors, including telecommunications, manufacturing, services, and so on, the product was reviewed by hundreds of customers worldwide in various regions.
Over 150 countries and regions including Latin America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, Huawei OceanStor Dorado all-flash storage is now utilized. Where it provides reliable services to industries such as finance, telecommunications, government, and public utilities.
Huang Tao, President of Huawei All-Flash Storage Domain, is convinced.
“We are grateful for the global community’s continued support and recognition, as Huawei’s primary storage is once again regarded as a ‘Customers’ Choice’. We believe this recognition is the highest form of affirmation from our valued clients, and it serves as a driving force fueling our persistent efforts towards further improvements.”
“In our commitment to innovation, we will focus on crucial aspects such as reliability, ease of use, and security, while continuously investing in technologies to offer our clients more efficient, stable, and intelligent storage solutions that accelerate their digital transformation.”
The cost of removing the Huawei equipment has risen since Huawei and ZTE have been declared as national security threats due to the practice of spies. The US wants to completely spare Chinese tech giant equipment from the county while campaigning to get rid of them.
The US imposed sanctions on Huawei equipment in 2019. The FCC was granted $1.9 billion in funding to help carriers replace Huawei and ZTE equipment with alternatives, in 2021. In the present year, it is estimated that the US needs more money to completely fulfill the job. i.e. another 3.08 billion dollars to bring the project to completion.
Why does America need more money to get the job done?
The US will spend a total of 5 billion dollars on infrastructure replacement if additional costs do not appear in between. The compensation is for carriers with more than two million users, in the first line. However, due to the lack of funds, the FCC decided to set priorities.
The US is also pressurizing European countries to do the same, apart from the fact that the US having a lack of funds in the same stream. So far, only Sweden and the UK have obeyed. Other countries continue to do business with Chinese companies, and currently, 41% of European 4G infrastructure relies on Huawei technology. The complete replacement of Huawei infrastructure will last until 2027 as later predicted.
What about other countries?
Following the US sublines some EU countries decided to go their own way despite the fact that the US needs more money to get rid of Huawei. Germany, Poland, Portugal, and Austria continue to use Huawei equipment for the 5G network as well.
Berlin rais hand to be self decision-maker in the line, about whose equipment it will opt for. Meanwhile, they’ll not give in to American pressure. As other the recent report disclose that the operator Vodafone in Germany alone would spend 2.8 billion euros to replace Huawei’s equipment.
