CCTV News: Today (May 17) is International Telecom Day. Speaking of the telecom industry, the biggest change for us is no longer the development of telecommunications. Wireless networks and broadband networks have become indispensable parts of life. Just recently, a 10,000 Gigabit broadband network has begun trial operation in many places across the country, and some residents have installed it in their homes. How can I use such a fast internet speed? The reporter followed the engineer to experience the entire installation process. Let’s take a look together.

The reporter followed the operator to a community in Fengtai, Beijing. Not long ago, this place was listed as a pilot for 10G community and welcomed the first user to install 10G optical network. The engineer told reporters that in addition to using special routers and network cables to install 10G optical networks at home, the steps are similar to installing ordinary broadband, and a specific installation plan will be designed according to the house type and other conditions.

The engineer told reporters that because of the loss of equipment, the downward speed of more than 9,000 megabytes in actual life, and there are other restrictions to really use such a fast network speed. "In addition to installing a 10G router, there is also a 10G network cable, the user's terminal needs to be a 10G interface, for example, the computer needs to have a 10G interface. There is also when surfing the Internet, such as uploading and downloading files on the network disk, the other party does not have a speed limit. Only when the above conditions are met can you better experience the 10G speed."

The reporter saw that with the support of 10G network speed, several G files can be transmitted in seconds. Not only has the download and upload speed become faster, but everyone will no longer squeeze out the Internet when using it together. Multiple devices run high-definition videos, online meetings, cloud games, etc. at the same time, without interfering with each other, truly achieving the pressure-free connection of the whole family. In addition, it can experience smart applications such as naked-eye 3D, AI interaction, AR/XR more smoothly.

my country has entered a new stage of 10 Gigabit pilot

For many citizens, 10 Gigabit Optical Network is still a new thing. What is 10G Optical Network? What's the use for ordinary people?

The 10 Gigabit optical network is the upgrade and evolution direction of the next generation of broadband networks and is an important part of the new information infrastructure, mainly including high-speed and large-capacity optical transmission, the integration of optical networks and artificial intelligence, etc. Its network speed can reach 10 times the current average network speed, with larger bandwidth, lower latency and higher reliability.

Promoting the development of 10 Gigabit optical network will greatly help AI and intelligent applications and achieve "ubiquitous" intelligent connections. It is estimated that it only takes more than ten seconds to download a 20GB 4K high-definition movie through 10G Optical Network. You can "immerse" to play large-scale 3A cloud games in an "immersive way". In addition, the 10G Optical Network can connect computing power centers in different regions to realize computing power resource sharing. In the past, tasks such as professional servers, 3D rendering that took several days, online simulation, etc. were required to be completed in just a few hours by connecting to the 10 Gigabit network. It can also promote the continuous emergence of new businesses and applications such as high-precision industrial quality inspection.

At present, my country has carried out 168 communities, factories and parks in 86 cities in 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities). By the end of 2025, a number of 10 Gigabit communities, 10 Gigabit factories and 10 Gigabit parks will be built to realize the deployment and application of 10 Gigabit optical network technology, drive breakthroughs in my country's 10 Gigabit optical network core technologies and key equipment, and lay the foundation for large-scale deployment.
