Its innovative Mesh+Wi-Fi 6 solution delivers real gigabit speeds throughout the home to enable a full-coverage and seamless-roaming network experience for users. Also, its Mesh+AI (Artificial Intelligence) solution is able to solve the pain points of home network management by implementing visual management of home Wi-Fi and performing intelligent diagnosis and optimization.

In addition, ZTE’s Mesh+FTTR (Fiber to the Room) solution is the only all-optical networking solution in the industry to support both point-to-point (P2P) and point-to-multipoint (P2MP) technologies. Designed to provide future-ready connectivity, the solution can eliminate the bandwidth bottleneck in the home in one go and meet the home broadband requirements of users in the next 20 years. With this solution, ZTE has won multiple awards and completed commercial trials in over 20 provinces of China.
