Designing the campus of the future starts with high-quality 10Gbps connectivity
According
to
Huawei,
90%
of
urban
residents
either
live,
work
or
study
in
a
campus,
generating
80%
of
national
GDP.
However,
campus
infrastructure
is
often
decades
old
and
mismatched
to
people’s
growing
needs.

However,
campus
infrastructure
is
often
decades
old
and
mismatched
to
people’s
growing
needs.
Campus
residents
are
increasingly
reliant
on
high-performance
wireless
networks,
high
bandwidth/low
latency
connections
to
cloud
applications
and
high-definition
audio/video
services.
Huawei’s
latest
networking
technologies
support
a
vision
for
campuses
up
to
10Gbps
–
not
just
in
central
buildings,
but
in
branch
facilities
as
well.
Its
CloudCampus
network
is
designed
to
support
office,
production,
and
branch
services
long
into
the
future.
With
virtual
reality
use
cases,
individual
end
user
capacity
can
reach
800Mbps,
which
is
why
underlying
network
infrastructure
needs
to
be
able
to
support
multiple
gigabits
of
concurrent
bandwidth.
Likewise,
in
a
wired
classroom
with
10
to
13
information
points,
each
will
consume
several
hundred
megabits
per
second
of
traffic,
leading
to
the
need
for
multiple
gigabit
connectivity.
In
a
production
environment,
where
industrial
IP
cameras
are
in
use,
a
set
of
cameras
can
use
multiple
gigabits
of
bandwidth
to
feed
machine
learning
models
working
in
real
time.
Supporting
these
use
cases
requires
a
significant
shift
in
thinking
about
what’s
provided
to
campus
workers.
Instead
of
providing
the
minimum
viable
networking
infrastructure,
what’s
needed
instead
is
campus
connectivity
that
has
ample
headroom
to
significantly
improve
the
work
and
life
experiences
of
campus
users.
Conventional
campus
network
solutions
have
limited
flexibility
to
react
quickly
to
accommodate
emerging
demands
like
AI
training
and
high-definition
video
streaming.
The
burgeoning
growth
in
these
areas
relies
on
high-performance,
secure
networks.
Huawei’s
solution:
High-Quality
10
Gbps
CloudCampus
network
Huawei’s
solution
to
these
challenges
is
its
high-quality
10
Gbps
CloudCampus
network,
which
is
designed
to
provide
ultra-fast
wired
and
wireless
access
and
a
simplified,
software
defined
network
architecture
with
superior
user
experience.
The
solution
provides
fast,
secure
terminal
access
and
a
flatter
network
architecture
that
enhances
usability
for
users
and
administrators,
as
well
as
enterprise-quality
branches
that
maintain
superior
experience
levels
even
in
locations
where
internet
or
WAN
connections
are
poor

How
Huawei
achieves
10
Gbps
across
campuses
Huawei’s
network
solution
incorporates
a
number
of
breakthrough
technologies
and
services
to
deliver
on
its
promise.
Newest
wireless
standards:
It
makes
use
of
Huawei’s
very
latest
Wi-Fi
6
and
Wi-Fi
7
access
points
to
ensure
connectivity
is
extremely
fast
and
well
managed.
Simplified
architecture:
A
two-layer
architecture
consisting
of
a
central
switch
and
remote
units,
replacing
the
traditional
three-layer
network
structure.
Simplified
branch:
Huawei’s
Software-Defined
WAN
(SD-WAN)
gateway
combines
multiple
functions
(routing,
switching,
Power
over
Ethernet
(PoE),
firewall,
intrusion
prevention/antivirus,
and
5G)
into
a
single
device,
making
deployment
more
easily
repeatable
and
manageable.
User
experience:
a
number
of
Huawei
technologies
keep
services
operating
smoothly
even
under
heavy
network
load.
Huawei’s
iMaster
NCE
visualises
network
status
and
automates
fault
detection
and
location
to
improve
operational
efficiency.
AI
and
machine
learning:
Huawei’s
CloudCampus
solution
integrates
advanced
technologies
such
as
AI
and
machine
learning,
allowing
the
campus
network
to
adapt
to
changing
conditions
without
IT
administrators
having
to
manually
intervene.
The
future
is
now
Huawei’s
high-quality
10Gbps
CloudCampus
network
provides
a
technology
suite
that’s
available
now
to
support
frictionless
living,
learning
and
working
across
campus
environments.
The
solution’s
use
of
many
networking
features
virtualised
on
general
purpose
server
infrastructure
allows
for
artificial
intelligence
to
monitor
and
respond
rapidly
to
changing
needs
of
users.
