Site Energy

To address the increases in energy consumption

that will be caused by 5G deployment and increase

carriers’ investment efficiency, Huawei proposed the

simple, intelligent, and green 5G telecom power target

network, and launched a new 5G Power solution. We

aim to build a unified power supply platform for all

scenarios and spearhead the application of the “One

Site One Cabinet” and “One Site One Blade” site

construction models. This will help carriers construct

and run 5G networks in a faster, simpler, and more

cost-effective manner.

Carrier IT Infrastructure

5G is set to create massive amounts of data, so

carriers are ramping up their efforts to upgrade

data infrastructure. By the end of 2019, Huawei’s

storage products had been adopted by all mainstream

European carriers, and more than 200 carriers

worldwide had chosen Huawei as their partner. Our

products include the following:

■    OceanStor all-flash storage: This intelligent, high-

end all-flash storage system targets core service

systems. It delivers industry-leading performance

and reliability, ensuring quick service response and

no service interruptions.

■    A next-generation distributed storage system

with high-density nodes: This system supports the

coming tidal wave of new data, slashing storage

footprints and energy consumption while reducing

OPEX.

To support carrier 5G rollout, Huawei has launched a

full-stack hybrid cloud solution and developed hybrid

cloud services targeting 5G, cloud, AI, and edge. This

helps carriers improve IT efficiency and accelerate their

innovation in 5G B2B and B2C services. By the end of

2019, Huawei had worked extensively with over 100

carriers on cloud services.

In the 5G era, data centers will be built in multiple

scenarios. To address this challenge, we have

developed our prefabricated modular data center

solution, Huawei FusionDC, which cuts the data

center construction period in half. In addition, our AI-

powered iCooling technology enables intelligent O&M

systems with better energy efficiency, significantly

reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO). The

prefabricated modular data center has become the

mainstream model used by carriers in the Middle East,

Latin America, Africa, and Asia Pacific when building

hyperscale and medium-sized data centers.

5G rollout also mandates the provisioning of massive

edge services. To meet this requirement, Huawei’s

integrated smart micro-module data center solution

and prefabricated modular data center solution will

have unified form factors and support one-stop

deployment, accelerating service launch.

Specifically, our solutions have the following unique
features:

■ “One Site One Cabinet”: With innovative high-
efficiency and high-density technologies, along
with intelligent lithium batteries, and intelligent
peak shaving and intelligent voltage boosting, this
solution means there will be no need to change
mains or power distribution or add cabinets during
5G site evolution.

■ “One Site One Blade”: With simplified blade power,
this solution does not require any extra space.
Power installation can be completed by one person
within an hour, and site efficiency can increase to
nearly 97%. This allows for much faster 5G network
deployment and cuts OPEX.

By the end of 2019, the Huawei 5G Power solution had
been deployed by 84 carriers worldwide. It also won
the 2019 Global Industry Award for Sustainable Impact
from ITU thanks to its outstanding contributions to
energy conservation and emissions reduction in mobile
networks.
