The "double Gigabit" network represented by Gigabit Optical Network and 5G is an important support for new infrastructure and a key link for the development of smart home appliances. He Yaqiong said that in recent years, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has organized basic telecommunications companies to accelerate the construction and application of 5G and Gigabit Light Network, and has achieved positive results.

First, in terms of policy supply, policies and measures such as the "Double Gigabit" Network Cooperative Development Action Plan have been introduced to continuously improve the coverage and service capabilities of 5G and Gigabit Optical Network. In addition, the "Guiding Opinions on Accelerating the Development of Digital Families to Improve the Quality of Residence" is introduced to improve the quality of residents' use of the network at home. Data show that by the end of June, 1.854 million 5G base stations were completed and opened across the country, and Gigabit Light Network had the ability to cover more than 400 million households, and built a very good network support for smart home appliance applications.

Second, organize the construction of Gigabit cities. So far, 29 cities such as Beijing and Shanghai have built the first batch of Gigabit cities across the country, which means that more than 1 billion smartphone users in my country can enjoy the WiFi of Gigabit Light Network, including network services, letting these 29 cities. The data runs faster and the services get smoother.

Third, vigorously promote application innovation, while further promoting the 5G application "sailing" action plan, it has also held a series of "blooming cups" 5G application collection and "Guanghua Cup" Gigabit Light Network Application Innovation Series to explore 5G and Gigabit Optical networks are integrated in various fields including smart home appliances.

First, continue to deepen the coverage of the" double Gigabit "network. In principle, the 5G and Gigabit Networks of some cities continue to cover. At the same time, extend to towns and rural areas. The second is to promote the large -scale development of the "double Gigabit" application, and it will continue to dig a number of typical applications in the field of home appliances and home furnishings. Scene, release the potential of the "double Gigabit" network. "He Yaqiong said.
