Huawei’s perceived 12-18 month lead over rival 5G kit vendors stands, the Chinese firm said at at partner and media event in London today, as it unveiled a rush of innovations in its radio, transmission, and core network offers that make new 5G deployments easier, cheaper, and quicker.
Huawei said it has 91 commercial 5G contracts to date, making clear its count is for RAN deals, by operator by region, and there is no double counting for other supply arrangements in the network.
