Huawei keeps investing in FTTH technology innovations and launching competitive E2E FTTH solutions. Besides, Huawei also actively participates in the international standardization and has already contributed many drafts. For example, Huawei takes the major positions, such as president, board member, and main editor, in key PON standards organizations, including, ITU-T, IEEE, and BBF. In these positions, Huawei made significant contributions to the standardization of 10G PON, TWDM PON, and WDM PON.

Huawei has been committed to promoting the development of the FTTH industry. In 2007, Huawei released an ONT chip with proprietary intellectual property rights and deployed the world's first commercial large-scale FTTH network in United Arab Emirates. In 2008, Huawei and Verizon (America) jointly carried out the world's first 10G PON test. In 2009, Huawei became the first vendor that deployed over 1 million FTTH terminals. In 2010, Huawei, together with China Telecom, Portugal Telecom, and Etisalat UAE, completed the world's first commercial deployment of 10G PON MDUs. In 2011, Huawei released the industry's first commercial 40G TWDM PON prototype and became the first vendor that delivered more than 10 million ONTs. In 2013, Huawei deployed the industry's first 10G PON ONT first office application (FOA) site for British Telecommunications. In 2014, Huawei released the industry's first intelligent ONT that supports the smart home service and signed a partnership agreement with Shanghai Research Institute of China Telecom in smart home network development. In 2015, Huawei cooperated with China Unicom, Beltelecom in developing an Internet of Things (IoT)-oriented smart home solution. According to an OVUM analysts report, Huawei has secured the top place in FTTH terminal shipment in consecutive seven years.

The FTTH industry has entered a new period of prosperity. New services, such as 4K TV, virtual reality (VR), and holographic imaging, demand increasingly higher bandwidths. The 100 Mbit/s fiber networks are being reconstructed into 1000 Mbit/s networks. Smart home services, including home security, intelligent control, superb entertainment, and online education, will greatly improve user experience. Huawei will continue to innovate and promote the development of the FTTH industry, helping customers achieve business success and enriching people's life through communication.
