Huawei Opens the Door to Ultrafast Broadband Access via Multi-medium.

Progressively Huawei unveiles its ambitions around the G.fast. In 2011, Connectikpeople may recall that, Huawei had released the world's first G.fast prototype and until now, has contributed a majority of core G.fast technologies.

Yesterday, the Chinese company unveiled the world's first G.fast over Coax multi-user access prototype capable of providing an ultrafast broadband access
rate of 1 Gbit/s over coaxial cables.

 With this prototype, Huawei realized G.fast ultrafast broadband via multi-medium and multi-user access.

The G.fast over Coax multi-user access technology is compatible with cable TV signals on existing coaxial networks, which serve as a crucial access medium for home networks. By flexibly allocating unoccupied frequency bands (1 GHz maximally) for G.fast access, the technology provides a 1 Gbit/s downstream shared bandwidth to serve up to 32 users over coaxial cables.

According to Huawei, with this technology, coaxial network users are able to experience superfast broadband speeds.

Connectikpeople has also observed that, G.fast is mainly applied to short-distance twisted pairs to deliver Gigabit access. Huawei has been conducting the G.fast over Copper trial with a leading European telecom operator, providing 1G bit/s access via existing copper lines. In addition, Huawei incorporates the G.fast technology into its Fiber to the Door (FTTD) solution, which takes fiber to the door and then delivers ultrafast broadband access via existing access media (such as copper lines or coaxial cables).
