From combating climate change to eradicating hunger and poverty, digital technology can help achieve 70% of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Now, more than ever, innovative thinking and action in the digital world is needed to build a sustainable future.

The development of 50G PON (5G-A) cannot be separated from user demand. At present, 50G PON, like 5G, lacks a convincing explosion application scenario, and is not a very needed technology. Compared to 5G, the biggest advantage of 50G PON is cost. Although it will cost significantly more than 10G PON, it will still be much lower than 5G. By pairing with Wi-Fi 7, 50G PON is easier to provide users with low-cost, high speed, low latency Internet access capabilities, and is more easily accepted by the market.

Every iteration and evolution of mobile communication technology bursts out with strong momentum, driving the leapfrog development of the industry and even the entire society. Nowadays, with the imminent freezing of the 3GPP Rel-18 standard and the continuous emergence of new scenarios, new services, and new demands, the industry has set off a wave towards 5G-A. Turk Telekom is one of Turkey's mainstream telecom operators, with more than 26 million mobile users.

The 400G all-optical interprovincial backbone network is a long-distance optical signal transmission network device that can connect edge, center and hub cluster computing power and is the connection hub of the computing power network.

Stefan Pongratz, vice president and analyst at market research firm Dell'Oro Group, wrote in a latest blog post that the global telecommunications equipment market experienced five consecutive years of growth and a stable development trend in the first half of 2023.

On the eve of MWC24, Ericsson announced the release of a number of new hardware and software solutions, and all of these products will support Open RAN. After receiving the industry's largest Open RAN contract worth US$14 billion from AT&T at the end of last year, Ericsson's publicity and marketing voice for Open RAN technology has been unprecedentedly high-profile. "Promoting the industrialization of Open RAN" is one of the loud slogans Ericsson put forward when releasing these latest products.

In 2023, the backbone transmission network for "digital data in the east and data in the west" will enter the 400G era, and the capacity of the trunk optical network will be greatly improved. While the large-scale commercial use of 400G is gradually deepening, the industry is also actively exploring the forward-looking deployment of 800G. 800G long-distance transmission requires continued development of key technologies such as 200GB+ high baud rate devices and C+L+S multi-band transmission based on 400G technology. Conduct research and achieve breakthroughs.

Recently, LightCounting, a market organization in the optical communications industry, released a report stating that the artificial intelligence competition has had a meaningful impact on optical device module suppliers for the first time.In the fourth quarter of 2023, NVIDIA's demand for 4x100G and 8x100G optical modules had a significant impact on the revenue of the two optical module suppliers for the first time.

Short-range communication technology represented by Wi-Fi still has huge market space. The digital scenario of vertical industries is extremely complex. Diverse needs require diverse technologies. For short-distance communication technology, with its advantages in cost and flexibility, there is still unlimited development potential to be tapped.
