Huawei Canada announces to support the economy and 5G
By MYBRANDBOOK
Huawei Canada has announced three new commitments to bring the next generation 5G mobile network to Canada and support their economy and communities in which they work. The announcements include -
· By 2020, Huawei Canada will provide Information and Communications Technology (ICT) training to over 1,000 Canadians. This new commitment will be under the Huawei Authorized Learning Partner (HALP) program and other similar initiatives implemented across Canada.
· By late 2019, Huawei Canada will release its first 5G-ready smartphone for the Canadian market.
· Beginning immediately, a donation of $100,000 will be put towards Ottawa flood relief in partnership with United Way Ottawa. Huawei employees in Ottawa also have the option of taking paid days off in order to volunteer for flood relief and cleanup efforts. Huawei Canada employs hundreds of people in Ottawa.
Eric Li, President of Huawei Canada, says, “We are incredibly proud and humbled by the work we have accomplished in Canada over the last 10 years. With a team of over 1,100 employees from coast to coast – 600 of whom are engineers – we have the best and the brightest Canadian minds and we will continue to invest in training for the Canadian marketplace. Canada is the home of Huawei 5G and we are working to ensure we remain at the forefront of 5G technology and development.”
5G technology applications are featured at the demo-day, including:
* 5G equipment–provides higher bandwidth for faster and better service to Canadians
* Connected Drones – essential in situations that require urgent and real-time analysis like search + rescue in disaster response or monitoring in hard-to-reach areas
* Internet of Things (IoT) Applications – Smart Agriculture – monitoring and tracking to help protect crops and optimize yields
* Internet of Things (IoT) Applications – Connected Vineyard – detection of environmental changes to protect crops and stop damage
* Internet of Things (IoT) Applications – Smart Tracker – multiple devices to track and monitor health signs like temperature and heartbeat
* Cloud Mixed and Virtual Reality – like being at a concert or trekking a mountain, this latest VR connects to the cloud and is entirely wireless
* Huawei 5G-ready smartphone–interoperable between 4G and 5G networks, ready for when 5G comes to Canada
* WiFi 6 – the next generation of the Wi-Fi standard, introducing key 5G technologies. Comparatively, Wi-Fi 6 increases network bandwidth and the number of concurrent users by four-fold over Wi-Fi 5, reducing the average network latency from 30 milliseconds to 20 milliseconds.
