China has rolled out the world’s first 10-gigabit (10G) fixed broadband network in Xiong'an New Area, promising ultra-fast speeds and low latency through cutting-edge optical infrastructure.
The world’s first 10G broadband network, capable of delivering download speeds nearing 10 gigabits per second, has been officially launched in China. The milestone was achieved through a joint effort by tech giant Huawei and telecommunications provider China Unicom, with the network initially deployed in the Xiong'an New Area.
Built on innovative 50G Passive Optical Network (PON) technology, the network reaches download speeds of up to 9,834 Mbps, upload speeds of 1,008 Mbps, and latency as low as 3 milliseconds. This development significantly enhances fixed broadband infrastructure, boosting individual user capacity from the gigabit level to true 10G capabilities.
In its pilot phase, users have already begun testing the network’s capacity by simultaneously running smart home systems, streaming ultra-high-definition 8K video, and engaging in real-time cloud gaming — all without experiencing performance slowdowns.
Unlike mobile 5G networks, the 10G broadband refers to fixed optical line speeds of 10 gigabits per second. The difference in performance is substantial: a 20 GB 4K movie that would take up to 10 minutes to download on a typical 1 Gbps connection can now be downloaded in under 20 seconds using the 10G network.
China plans to expand this next-generation broadband technology to 168 locations nationwide, solidifying its position at the forefront of digital infrastructure.
This breakthrough follows earlier progress in China’s tech landscape, including the recent launch of a satellite dedicated to testing satellite internet technology from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the northwest of the country.
