China Unicom demonstrated its latest innovations at the 2024 Mobile World Congress, including China Unicom’s whole-house optical broadband 3.0 service based on Huawei Starlight F50. This innovative service is designed to meet users' demands for the ultimate Internet experience with high speeds, low latency and seamless roaming.

According to the editor’s understanding, Ma Hongbing, general manager of China Unicom’s Technology Innovation Department, pointed out at the press conference that with the rapid development of the smart era, the functions of FTTR equipment have far exceeded simple home networking needs. Nowadays, what users are looking forward to is the business integration of FTTR X, hoping that through this integration, they can enjoy richer and more convenient smart home application services.

In terms of terminal selection, China Unicom worked closely with Huawei and selected Starlight F50 as a new generation of networking equipment. This device has undergone comprehensive innovative upgrades in many aspects such as network experience, smart storage, home security, and smart platforms. Specifically, the F50 is based on advanced Wi-Fi 7 technology, achieving Wi-Fi speeds of up to 3000Mbps, making downloading large high-definition movies a breeze, taking just 10 seconds. At the same time, the device also reduces the Wi-Fi roaming switching time to less than 10ms, ensuring that users can enjoy a smooth and stable network connection when moving around the home, and say goodbye to the problems of lag and delay. In addition, F50 also supports the simultaneous connection of up to 256 smart devices throughout the house, bringing an unprecedented smart life experience to home users.

#F50 not only performs excellently in network performance, but also cleverly realizes the intelligent collaboration of FTTR and storage. Users can enjoy up to 8TB of local storage space, and can use convenient functions such as one-click backup and smart album search. In addition, F50 also seamlessly connects with China Unicom Cloud Disk, providing additional protection for users’ data security.

F50 also has a unique home security function that uses Wi-Fi signal fluctuations to monitor indoor dynamics, provide accurate security care services, and protect user privacy. Combined with China Unicom's security butler service, we can create a comprehensive and multi-level home security protection system for users.

F50 is based on China Unicom’s Smart Home platform and ecosystem, which significantly improves the interactive experience between mobile phones and smart home devices. It provides unique bandwidth support for various IoT devices, ensuring that users can enjoy smooth, stable, and reliable connections when using smart home products. This innovative move pushes home networks into a new era of smart applications.
