[Sao Paulo, Brazil, October 9, 2024] The 2024 LATAM Fiber Broadband Leaders Summit hosted by Huawei and supported by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) was successfully held in Brazil. Themed “Digital Fiber, Advancing Giga LATAM”, the summit brought together more than 260 people from industry organizations, partners, and carriers in Latin America. At the Summit, participants discussed fiber broadband development trends, strategies, and practices. Huawei for the first time proposed three development strategies (all-optical transition, gigabit transition, and scenario transition) for giga fiber broadband industry and launched three digital fiber solutions.

Joey Zhou, President of Huawei Latin America ICT Marketing and Solution Sales Dept., said optical fiber has become Latin America’s most important broadband access technology. His statement was based on a recent report from the consultancy Omdia that noted that in 2024, fiber accounted for more than 60% of home broadband in Latin America.
Mainstream carriers in Latin America have released all-optical strategies and continued to increase investment. As digital services such as home office, live streaming, and e-commerce develop rapidly in Latin America, users pay more attention to network experience requirements, and upgrade bandwidth from 100Mbit/s to 1Gbit/s. Concurrently, application scenarios of optical broadband are no longer limited to traditional home entertainment scenarios, many diversified application scenarios such as smart home and SME digitalization emerge through one fiber, which will help carriers expand the boundaries of home broadband revenue.
At the event, Joey Zhou further noted: “Latin America’s digital economy is in a golden development period, digital services are accelerating, which has brought broad opportunities for value creation. Huawei is willing to work with governments, regulators, carriers and industry partners to accelerate the development of Latin America’s gigabit optical broadband industry and jointly build a digital Latin America.”
Gary Lu, President of Huawei Carrier Network Marketing and Solution Sales Department, delivered a speech titled “ACT3 to Embrace the GIGA and AI eras”. A is for ARPU, C is about coverage of service, and T stands for take-up rate.
Coverage multiplied by take-up rate is the user base, and ARPU is the key to increasing revenue.”ACT” to the power of three, means the three transitions are the way to increase the user base and the revenue of FBB service, and it will also bring the quality of digital life to Latin America. Gary Lu said that fiber construction and development in Latin America has entered the fast lane, and the gigabit fiber broadband era of Latin America has arrived. Carriers need to seize the new business opportunities in the gigabit and AI era. In his speech, Gary Lu proposed three development strategy suggestions — all-optical transition, gigabit transition, and scenario transition— to accelerate cable-to-fiber transition, increase both speed and quality, meet digital and AI service requirements, provide diversified and scenario-based service. By accelerating the three transitions, Huawei and Latin American carriers will jointly usher in a new era of gigabit intelligence in the region, bringing richer and higher-quality digital life experiences to users.

Daniel Zhang, Vice president of Huawei Latin America ICT Marketing and Solution Sales Department, delivered a speech titled “Digital Fiber Innovations, Advancing Giga LATAM”. Zhang said that Huawei has consistently adhered to the vision of “in Latin America, For Latin America”, matching Latin American market requirements and continuously promoting digital fiber innovations, to accelerate the development of the Latin American ICT industry. To help carriers better seize the development opportunities of gigabit Latin America, Huawei launched three major Digital Fiber solution innovations: Digital Quick ODN 4 cores solutions for cost-effective FTTH construction, Service-level slicing-based FTTH gigabit solution ensures differentiated service experience, and symmetrical 2.5 Gbit/s Super GPON Solution supports symmetrical business scenarios for small and medium-sized enterprises. In the future, Huawei hopes to work with industry partners to build gigabit Latin America and accelerate the development of the digital economy in Latin America.
