On “Optinet China Conference 2018” convened today, the Executive Deputy Director, Communications Science and Technology Committee, MIIT, addresses that all-optical network is the optimal basis and the optimal bearer technology of 5G network.
Wei Leping indicates that key requirements of 5G for bearer network include ultra-high speed, ultra-low delay, high-precision synchronization, low-bit cost, network slicing and flexible routing.
“All-optical network is the optimal 5G basis, and massive available frequency spectrum (10THz), ultra-high capacity (100Tbps) and ultra-high speed (1Tbps) of the optical network are the optimal bearer technology of 5G network.”
