BARCELONA, Spain, March 1, 2023 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

At MWC Barcelona 2023, Steven Zhao, Vice President of Huawei's Data

Communication Product Line, launched the Digital Managed Network Solution and

products for carriers' B2B services. It will help carriers seize digital

transformation opportunities and boost new growth. This solution provides

digital managed network capabilities and rich product portfolios, helping

carriers transform from ISPs to MSPs.

As industry digitalization gains momentum, two trends are becoming increasingly

evident. The first is that cloud-based enterprise service applications extend

from office systems to production systems, requiring better quality assurance

and a more secure network environment. The second is that enterprise networks

evolve towards fully wireless and network management shifts from static to

dynamic, all of which complicate network assurance and necessitate real-time

management capabilities. In particular, small- and medium-sized enterprises

(SMEs) lack the necessary funds and talent to follow these trends and are

therefore in urgent need of high-quality and affordable managed services.

Carriers have a large number of private line customers and boast three

advantages: strong customer relationships, best-in-class network connectivity,

and professional experience. As such, it is easier for carriers to provide

managed network services for enterprise customers and quickly gain market

growth.

Leading global carriers are actively transforming into digital managed network

service providers. To facilitate this, Huawei launched the Digital Managed

Network Solution and products at this year's MWC. These new offerings help

carriers add digital managed network services — including Managed LAN, Managed

WAN, Managed security, and Managed DCN — on top of IP private lines. These

offerings can also enable carriers to upgrade the quality assurance and

automation capabilities of their network infrastructures for differentiated

site-to-cloud private lines.

Featured offerings include the following:

-Private Line + Managed LAN: By leveraging cloud management technology, Private

Line + Managed LAN helps carriers expand from traditional private lines into

campus networks. In this way, carriers can offer converged cloud-managed

network services across LANs, WLANs, and IoT. The resulting benefits include

fast plug-and-play delivery, intelligent O&M for fault diagnosis in minutes,

85% less field support needed, and 20% shorter return on investment (ROI) time.

-Private Line + Managed WAN: Drawing on SD-WAN networking technology, Private

Line + Managed WAN enables hybrid networking of traditional MPLS private lines

and other private line technologies. This helps enterprises quickly migrate to

the cloud. Plus, 5G fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) and service-specific

flexible traffic steering offer differentiated access experience and improve

network service reliability. All of this ultimately strikes a perfect balance

between service requirements and IT costs while also increasing the average

revenue per user (ARPU) of private lines by more than 15%.

-Private Line + Managed Security: Building on a cloud service architecture,

Private Line + Managed Security helps carriers offer affordable cloud security

service packages to enterprises. As such, enterprises can subscribe online to

many security services, such as border protection, endpoint protection, and

ransomware protection. In this way, enterprises benefit from threat handling in

seconds while reducing expenditure on dedicated security IT personnel, and

carriers can increase their revenue of private line services by 20%.

-Private Line + Managed DCN: Featuring private line-IDC synergy, Private Line +

Managed DCN streamlines services inside and outside the cloud while

provisioning services in minutes. This is made possible with Huawei's

hyper-converged DCN solution that unifies general-purpose computing,

high-performance computing, and storage networks into all-Ethernet. In turn,

this cuts the TCO by 36% and accelerates enterprises' cloud journey.

-Private Line Upgrades: Carriers can leverage the industry's first tenant-level

network slicing capability to achieve Mbps-level slice granularity and service

SLA assurance, maximizing network monetization. They can also draw on the

industry's first digital network map for real-time visibility from physical

links to services, as well as full-journey automation spanning pre-sales

evaluation, during-sales deployment, and after-sales assurance of private line

services.

Looking ahead, Zhao said Huawei will continue to invest more in innovative

products and solutions tailored to industry digital transformation and carry

out joint innovation with customers and industry partners. Doing so will help

carriers transform into digital managed network service providers, accelerate

industry digital development, and boost new growth.

MWC Barcelona 2023 runs from February 27 to March 2 in Barcelona, Spain. Huawei

showcases its products and solutions at stand 1H50 in Fira Gran Via Hall 1.

Together with global operators, industry professionals, and opinion leaders, we

dive into topics such as 5G business success, 5.5G opportunities, green

development, digital transformation, and our vision of using the GUIDE business

blueprint to lay the foundation for 5.5G and build on the success of 5G for

even greater prosperity. For more information, please visit:
