ZTE has unveiled its prototype of the industry's first Optical Network Unit (ONU), with model number ZXHN F9746Q, supporting 50 gigabit passive optical networking (50G PON) and Wi-Fi 7 technologies, during FTTH Conference 2022 in Vienna, Austria.It is important to mention that the new ONU is another achievement of ZTE in the field of 50G PON after the launch of its industry's first precise 50G PON prototype during the Mobile World Congress 2022 held in Barcelona.The new device enhances ZTE's 50G PON product portfolio from end to end and reflects the company's innovative strength and leading position in fixed network products.On the other hand, the ZXHN F9746Q ONU employs asymmetric 50G PON technology on the network side, with the receiving speed reaching 50Gbps and the transmission speed reaching 25Gbps.Furthermore, when viewed from the user's point of view, the ONU offers a 50G Ethernet optical port to meet the high-speed access requirements of small and medium-sized businesses.Therefore, in order to take advantage of the capabilities of the 50G PON network more effectively, the device incorporates a MediaTek Filogic Wi-Fi 7 chipset. In addition, it offers four spatial streams in the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands. GHz, which provides a theoretical maximum rate of 19 Gbps and a four times increase in connection speed compared to ONUs that only support the Wi-Fi 6 standard.Enhances the high-bandwidth, multi-device connectivity that future home and business scenarios will needWith these capabilities, the ZXHNF9746Q enhances the high-bandwidth multi-device connectivity that future home and business scenarios will require.Furthermore, by integrating MediaTek's proprietary Multi-Link Operation (MLO) and Xtra Range technologies, ZTE's ONU greatly improves the user experience of high-bandwidth services over a fairly long distance.Thanks to a metal casing, the device can better dissipate heat while running high-speed applications, which makes this device more reliable.In another line, it is important to mention that 50G PON is a new generation PON technology that supports many application scenarios.In addition to providing ultra-broadband access for households, 50G PON provides high bandwidth, low latency, low delay jitter, and precise timing, which is required by innovative services such as 5G, Cloud VR, telemedicine, and smart manufacturing.Finally, the launch of ZTE's 50G PON+Wi-Fi 7 ONU prototype will advance the development of innovative services and accelerate the arrival of the Internet of Everything era.This is the opinion of Internet users, not of Zonamovilidad.esIt is not allowed to make comments contrary to the law or insulting.The requested email address will in no case be used for commercial purposes.Your email address will not be published.We reserve the right to remove comments that we deem off topic.
