Huawei's 40G transmission solution reportedly provides cost benefits across different application scenarios. The company's SuperDRZ technologies support ultra long-haul transmission of up to 1,500km without the need for regeneration, which reduces investment costs. In addition, 40G transmission solutions adopt Huawei's C-band extension technology, which increases the fibre transmission bandwidth by an extra 20% and enables the DWDM system to offer a transmission capacity of 3.84T.
The financial details of the project were not disclosed.
