[Shenzhen, China, June 4, 2025] According to the latest "China POL Market Tracker Report, 2024H2" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") released by International Data Corporation (IDC), Huawei ranked first in market share in China's POL (Passive Optical LAN) market in 2024. This marks the sixth consecutive year that Huawei has held the top position in this market.

The report analyzes the growth of China's POL (Plug-in Optical Network) market from four aspects: national strategic support, technological innovation, enterprise demand, and supplier competition. The report points out that as the "fiber-to-the-home" strategy gradually phases out copper cable networks, national policies are increasing guidance and support for the construction of gigabit optical networks. According to IDC forecasts, China's POL market will grow by 7.3% in 2025, reaching a market size of RMB 1.99 billion. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years is projected to be 6.3%, reaching RMB 2.52 billion by 2029.

As a leader in China's POL market, Huawei's F5G all-optical campus solution has been successfully commercialized in over 10,000 campuses across education, healthcare, hospitality, and manufacturing sectors. Facing the AI ​​era, the adage "No light, no AI" applies; all-optical campus networks, as the foundation for building intelligent campus networks, have been widely accepted. "Optical computing" efficiently supports local AI deployment within campuses, making it a standard feature of AI-era campuses. Huawei's F5G all-optical campus solution has undergone a comprehensive upgrade, encompassing product solutions, partner tools, and an enabling platform.

In 2025, Huawei launched the F5G-A 10 Gigabit all-optical campus solution and a series of flagship optical terminal products. Based on innovative 50G PON and Wi-Fi 7 technologies, it achieved 50G to the room, 10G to the access point (AP), and 2.5G to the desktop. Compared to the F5G all-optical campus solution, the F5G-A 10 Gigabit all-optical campus solution achieves five major upgrades: greater bandwidth, more connections, lower latency, higher reliability, and greater environmental friendliness, meeting customers' needs for building green 10 Gigabit campus networks.

For partners, Huawei released the FTTO Planner, a planning tool that uses AI to recognize CAD drawings and automatically generate configurations, reducing network design time from 2 days to 1 hour and supporting partners to work efficiently. At the same time, Huawei further upgraded the Optical Solution Partner Enablement Center platform, providing partners with a one-stop empowerment platform from learning to application, and promoting the rapid development of the F5G-A 10 Gigabit all-optical campus market.
