SHENZHEN, China, June 2, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of

telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile

Internet, today announced that ZTE and China Mobile have launched China's first

5G medical edge cloud platform. As a new-generation 5G information

communication infrastructure for medical industry customers, it is the

industry's first 5G intelligent edge cloud platform, employing a cloud-network

integrated architecture.

Integrating 5G slicing and edge computing technologies, the 5G medical edge

cloud platform can well satisfy the core capability requirements for

connection, computing, storage, middle platform, service and security in the

medical industry in a one-stop manner, thereby providing manageable and

controllable cloud-network integrated services.

The 5G edge cloud deployed on the user side can effectively shorten the network

route and greatly reduce network delay. In addition, the highly reliable

connection guarantee capability of the 5G private network enables innovative

medical applications, such as remote diagnosis and surgery, AI assistance,

mobile medicine and surgical instruction.

Moreover, the 5G medical edge cloud can effectively implement big data

management of medical health care. The medical application systems on the edge

cloud can be quickly interconnected, with their data being calculated, stored,

and managed flexibly as required.

The 5G medical edge cloud can also significantly reduce the cost of medical

informatization by means of the unified cloud-based deployment of various  

medical application systems. The open architecture of the 5G medical edge cloud

can provide various applications with standard interfaces and provide hospitals

with integrated smart medical solutions, thus building a smart medical

application ecosystem.

To date, nearly 100 Internet medical applications have been deployed on China

Mobile's 5G medical edge cloud, making it quite convenient for patients to

access various medical services.

As strategic partners, ZTE and China Mobile (Chengdu) Industrial Research

Institute have set up a joint 5G Innovation Lab where the two parties carry out

in-depth cooperation in industry-dedicated network technologies and MEC

(Multi-access edge computing). In addition, based on 5G slicing, MEC, XR, and

other technologies, ZTE and China Mobile (Chengdu) Industrial Research

Institute have explored innovative applications in healthcare and other fields,

for instance, the 5G medical edge cloud.

China Mobile's 5G medical edge cloud will accelerate the large-scale

applications of China Mobile's new-generation 5G smart hospital solutions, and

facilitate the industry development of medical informatization.

Moving forward, ZTE will continue to strengthen cooperation with China Mobile,

and work with industry partners to provide better network services and smarter

applications. ZTE will keep promoting the construction of new information and

communication infrastructure in the healthcare sector while facilitating the

development of the telemedicine industry, so as to create a new era of 5G smart

healthcare.
