Telecom Egypt, Huawei to launch first 50 GPON broadband trial

Arab Finance: Telecom Egypt has joined forces with Huawei to implement the first trial of a broadband network (50 GPON) in Africa, as per an emailed press release.

The 50 GPON is the latest fiber-optic technology that provides ultra-fast connection speeds over fiber-optic networks of up to 50 gigabits per second, allowing consumers and businesses better and more secure use of broadband.

In recent years, new services, such as ultra-high-definition (UHD) video, virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR), and industrial digitization, impose higher requirements when connecting to the network, and 50 GPON broadband technology can efficiently meet these requirements.

50 GPON broadband technology is currently known as the next-generation fiber optic technology (PON), which is officially approved by the Telecommunications Standards Board of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T).

The 50 GPON technology provides customers with the opportunity to enjoy a fast and smooth Internet experience, such as downloading high-definition movies, 8K video streaming, and online gaming.
