Telecom equipments manufacturer Huawei on Monday launched 200G high speed line card for high-end routers, which will enable operators to deploy ultra-broadband networks over which users can enjoy mobile broadband, and video services.

"The deployment of this 200G line card enables higher network and power efficiency for operators to effectively increase bandwidth, while reducing operation and maintenance (O&M) costs," Huawei said in a statement.

Cloud computing and network vitalisation are challenging legacy service channels. Operators are therefore in great need of larger-capacity and higher-efficiency "golden" service channels to ensure premium service experience, it added.

"Operators' demands for larger-capacity ultra-broadband networks to carry high-value services is the essential drive behind our development of the 200G line card.

Huawei is the only one in the industry to hold 200G core technologies and readily helps operators build sustainable, future-proof convergence networks," Huawei's Carrier IP Sub-Product Line president Hu Kewen said.

Using the Huawei self-developed solar chipsets, as well as the new-generation energy-saving technologies such as MIP (Macro Instruction for Packet Processing), this innovative 200G line card is able to achieve line-rate forwarding of services and additionally maintain minimum power consumption lower than 2.62 W per GE, which is significantly lower than the industry average.
