Huawei's F5G Power All-Optical Communication Network Helps Build New Power Systems
With the construction of new power systems, power communication networks are facing higher requirements, and it has become an urgent need for the power industry to improve network quality, expand network coverage, and achieve network security and control. Recently, Huawei's F5G power all-optical communication network solution appeared at the Sixth Electric Power Information and Communication New Technology Conference and Digital Development Forum, demonstrating the architecture and application of the power all-optical communication network based on end-to-end OSU technology, which has attracted extensive attention from the industry.
OSU (Optical Switching Unit) is an optical transmission device based on optical switching technology, featuring high reliability, low latency, large bandwidth, and ubiquitous connectivity, which is one of the representative technologies of F5G (Fifth Generation Fixed Network). Huawei's F5G all-optical communication network solution for electric power uses OSU technology to open up the end-to-end links of the transmission and distribution communication network, the distribution communication network, and the communication network within substations, achieving a direct one-hop connection from the service terminal system to the dispatching centre, reducing the delay and management difficulties associated with intermediate conversion and forwarding.
The solution also supports large aggregation ratio and large bandwidth, which can meet the demand for network resources and operation and maintenance resources in the digital transformation of electric power. At the same time, the solution adopts hard-pipe PON technology, which realises ubiquitous connection of terminal equipment at the end on the access side and improves connection efficiency and security. In addition, the solution supports the customised requirements of multiple business scenarios, such as intelligent power distribution, intelligent power transformation, and intelligent microgrids.
Huawei's F5G power all-optical communication network solution has been deployed and applied on a pilot basis in multiple regions at home and abroad, achieving good results. For example, in Zhenjiang City and Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province, Huawei cooperated with State Grid to incorporate OSU capabilities into the backbone network and achieve integrated access capabilities based on hard-isolated PONs, which improves network resource utilisation and O&M efficiency while guaranteeing highly reliable transmission of production services. In Barcelona, Spain, Huawei cooperated with Red Electrica, the Spanish national grid company, to deploy OSU equipment on its core backbone network, and successfully realised seamless connection with SDH/OTN equipment, enhancing network flexibility and scalability.
Huawei's F5G power all-optical communication network solution is one of Huawei's innovations in the F5G field, and one of Huawei's key initiatives to commit to building a more solid and reliable power all-optical communication chassis and to assist in the construction of new power systems. In the future, Huawei will continue to work with industry partners to promote the application and standardisation of F5G technology in the power industry, contributing to the construction of a green smart energy system.
