Huawei and the University of Hong Kong (HKU) recently launched "The University of Hong Kong & Huawei Global Smart Campus Network Showcase," marking a new milestone in their collaboration on developing smarter campus network connectivity and infrastructures.
Both parties are committed to creating a global showcase for smart campus network innovation, which not only accelerates HKU's digital and intelligent transformation, but also serves as an excellent reference and inspiration for more universities worldwide.
"As a world-class university, HKU is committed to providing the best teaching and research environment for global academic talent and promoting the integration of education and technology," said Flora Ng, Chief Information Officer and University Librarian at HKU, in her welcome speech.
"This year marks the 112th anniversary of the HKU Libraries, which has become a vital platform for global academic research over a century. With the growing diversity of teaching needs and accelerating digital transformation, building a smart campus is critical for providing high-quality educational services," she added.
Together with Huawei, HKU built a high-quality 10 Gbps campus network powered by Wi-Fi 7, and deployed it in multiple scenarios, such as libraries, main building (Loke Yew Hall), classrooms, and HKU Station. These deployments ensure stable, smooth network connections for teaching applications in smart classrooms, libraries, study rooms, and auditoriums, laying a solid foundation for HKU's smart campus\
For his part, Jason He, president of Global Enterprise Data Communication Marketing and Solution Sales Department at Huawei, said that education is rapidly integrating with digital technology. With that, Huawei fully leverages its unmatched expertise and strengths in the ICT field to help HKU innovate in scientific research, teaching affairs, and management processes.
"Specifically, Huawei's high-quality 10 Gbps campus network solution powered by Wi-Fi 7 brings to HKU three types of experience upgrade: wireless experience upgrade, application experience upgrade, and O&M experience upgrade. This solution meets various campus scenario-specific needs while ensuring data security, ultimately delivering a fresh-new network experience," he said.
