China has reportedly launched world’s first 10G broadband network in the Xiong’an city, which is located in Heibei province’s Sunan county. This marks a major breakthrough in the global internet infrastructure. The 10G broadband network is a collaborative work between Huawei and China Unicom, which is a state-owned telecom service provider.

World’s first 10G broadband network​

• According to a report by The Economic Times, the newly launched 10G broadband network aims to deliver download speeds up to 9834 Mbps and an upload speeds of up to 1008 Mbpswith a latency of three miliseconds.
• These speed could put China ahead of countries like UAE (United Arab Emirates) and Singapore that offer some of the fastest commercial broadband speeds in the world.
• For reference, a report by Statista says that UAE offers average fixed broadband speed of 313.5Mbps while the number stands at 345.3Mbps for Singapore.
• The 10G broadband network reportedly uses 50G Passive Optical Network (PON) technology.
• The 50G Passive Optical Network technology is the next generation of FTTx (Fibre to the X) technology that can deliver download speed of 50Gbps and an upload speed varying up to 50Gbps. This technology is capable of delivering higher internet speed without major upgrades to the infrastructure.

What could 10G broadband network potentially do?​

According to the report, internet users will be able to download a full length 4K movie that is around 20GB in size in under 20 seconds. However, it would take the existing 1Gbps networks around 7 to 10 minutes to download a 4K movie.



That said, more practical application of the 10G broadband network would lie in use cases such as cloud computing, virtual reality (AR), and augmented reality (AR). This technology could also facilitate advancements in other sectors such as telemedicine, education and agriculture by enabling faster internet speeds and reliable connections

Dang that's pretty fast! It wouldn't surprise me if within the next few years we'll be getting these types of speeds everywhere, it's amazing to see how fast technology still continues to evolve!

Looks like a propaganda to me 😀

No credible evidence, all or 'reportedly' or 'allegedly'.

It’s actually real, it’s being rolled out in Sunan County first. If you’re skeptical, I’d definitely recommend looking into it yourself. The news came from credible sources, not just random reports. Here’s another one of the articles covering it: https://tvbrics.com/en/news/china-launches-world-s-first-10g-network/"

The world’s first 10G broadband network has been launched in China’s Xiong’an New Area, Hebei Province, according to the local government’s official website.

“These networks deliver a fundamentally new level of digital infrastructure. They enable 8K video playback, large-scale online gaming, and 3D content in everyday life. In education, they provide stable and high-quality online learning. In industry, they offer precise real-time equipment control and monitoring. For live streaming platforms, they allow for rapid transmission of high-definition video and an immersive experience for viewers,” the statement reads.

It is noted that the experimental project has been rolled out in two locations: Huawancheng Park and the Xiong’an High-Tech Zone. The idea is to demonstrate how such networks can operate in real-world conditions, from residential homes to industrial factories.

Earlier, it was reported that Chinese researchers are preparing to open the country’s first training centre for humanoid robots, where prototype models of various kinds will be trained for everyday and professional use.
