[Shenzhen, China, February 13, 2025] GlobalData, a world-renowned consulting firm, released the 2024 Fiber to the Premise (FTTP) Competitive Landscape Assessment, which evaluates and ranks the OLT products of five top global vendors. Huawei’s OptiXaccess MA5800T smart 10G OLT series (MA5800T series) scored the highest across all five dimensions measured: density/scalability, backplane/system throughput capacity, ONT range, deployment flexibility, and customer and market traction. This placed Huawei at No.1 in overall competitiveness and highlighted its position as the leader in the FTTP field.
Huawei 10G smart OLT leading across all dimensions in GlobalData report
Specializing in ICT data analysis and consulting, GlobalData focuses on ICT industry research and provides evaluation reports on areas such as market research and forecast and product analyses. In its 2024 FTTP assessment, the MA5800T series has shown outstanding performance in the following five scoring dimensions defined by GlobalData:
Density/Scalability
An OLT should have high density and scalability. Huawei’s MA5800T series supports 8-/16-port symmetric/asymmetric triple-mode 50G PON with high-density deployment, meeting the access requirements for a large number of 10G users.
Backplane/System Throughput Capacity
An OLT should have sufficient capacity to support upstream and downstream links. The Huawei MA5800T series supports 1 Tbps per slot, leading the industry.
ONT Range
It is important for an OLT to support various ONT models during FTTP deployment. The Huawei MA5800T series supports concurrent access of GPON, 10G PON, and 50G PON ONTs, as well as being compatible with GPON and 10G PON user access on the live network, offering strong protection for customers’ live network investments.
Deployment Flexibility
An OLT should support the flexible deployment of different PON technologies and nodes of different scales. Huawei’s MA5800T series is compatible with GPON, 10G PON, and 50G PON technologies. Furthermore, it provides an optical power budget up to 32 dB, and enables smooth upgrades without the need to change existing ODNs, thus maximizing return on investment (ROI).
Customer and Market Traction
The quantity, quality, and scale of cooperation with operators were all key scoring criteria in the GlobalData FTTP report. The Huawei MA5800T series has been tested and deployed by more than 60 operators, more than any other vendor. In addition, it is the only 50G PON OLT that can currently enter commercial use.
Huawei’s next-generation OptiXaccess MA5800T smart OLT series is the industry’s first smart OLT platform designed for the 10G era. Featuring a deterministic experience, ultra-large bandwidth, smooth upgrades, and native intelligence, it provides operators and enterprises with the solutions they need to quickly and efficiently deploy premium FTTP networks, and drives the transformation from bandwidth to experience monetization.
