ISTANBUL, Nov. 5, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- At the 10th Ultra-Broadband Forum (UBBF 2024), the
World Broadband Association (WBBA), IPv6 Forum, Arab Information
and Communication Technology Organization (AICTO), government
agencies, device vendors, and over 10 global carriers launched the
Net5.5G Pioneer Program. This initiative calls on industry players
to accelerate the commercial deployment of Net5.5G and foster the
prosperity of the data communication industry.
Net5.5G, the next-generation IP network, is a crucial Internet
infrastructure upgrade for the intelligent era. It drives
inter-generational transitions, facilitating more organized
planning and promotion of the data communication industry's
evolution, thereby significantly enhancing fundamental network
capabilities.
The launch of the Net5.5G Pioneer Program will expedite the
global commercial deployment of Net5.5G. Martin Creaner, Director General of the WBBA,
elaborated on the three categories of the program: thought
pioneers, city pioneers, and commercial pioneers. Thought pioneers
guide industry development and improve the standards system. City
pioneers drive policy implementation and facilitate top-level
planning and construction of regional network infrastructures.
Commercial pioneers share global best practices in Net5.5
commercial deployment. Martin envisioned the Net5.5G Pioneer
Program acting as a catalyst, uniting stakeholders to drive the
widespread adoption of Net5.5G technologies, foster industry
development, accelerate global commercial deployment, and stimulate
new growth for carriers.
In addition, to recognize carriers who have made remarkable
achievements in Net5.5G deployment, the Net5.5G Pioneer Award
Ceremony was held, honoring more than 10 global carriers.
Representatives from leading carriers, including Turkcell
Türkiye etc., shared their best practices in commercializing
Net5.5G. Turkcell Türkiye said it will continue to build
high-quality network infrastructures, construct networks oriented
to Net5.5G, and commercially deploy key technologies such as
400GE/SRv6/Network Digital Map on the target network to provide
premium digital services to customers. In addition, the AICTO
shared its efforts in advancing Net5.5G commercialization in the
Arab and African regions to realize the Arab Horizon 2030 and build
a high-speed and high-quality future network infrastructure based
on Net5.5G.
The Net5.5G Pioneer Program is expected to unite all industry
stakeholders and accelerate the global commercial deployment of
Net5.5G. As the next-generation Internet evolves toward Net5.5G,
industry organizations, government agencies, carriers, and device
vendors are working together to drive innovation in technical
standards, policies, and commercial use, fostering the development
of the data communication industry and unleashing productivity for
the intelligent world.
The 10th
Ultra-Broadband Forum, jointly held by the Broadband Commission,
WBBA and Huawei, is the premier global summit in the UBB
industry.
