The 4 days of disconnection in Canada confirmed the importance of Chinese communications equipment vendors

Canada's largest telecommunications operator Rogers disconnected for four days-from July 8th, local time to July 11th, this is exactly 50 days after it announced that it will no longer use China ’s communication equipment merchant, Huawei's device, this is this. It can't help but let people associate the correlation between the two and question whether equipment vendors such as Nokia and Ericsson have enough ability to ensure the operator's mobile communication services?

Rogers is the largest operator in Canada. It has more than 10 million mobile phone users, accounting for nearly one -third of the proportion of Canadian population. Four days of disconnection, many mobile phone users have to go online in office buildings, cafes, etc. Many mobile phone users have experienced unforgettable days, and deeply realized the far -reaching impact of mobile networks on their lives.

Rogers's internet disconnection not only affects mobile phone users, but also affects the service of withdrawal and payment of three banks in the five major commercial banks in Canada. Canada's taxes, hospitals, and even buses have been affected. It can Wide, and all of this is related to Rogers's network system upgrade failure.

Rogers said that the network interrupt was caused by the failure of the network system after the core network maintenance was updated, and this happened after Canada announced that it would no longer use Chinese communication equipment vendors. Essence

At present, global mobile communication technology has 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G at the same time. A variety of technologies coexist, and the spectrum of each generation of technology is wider and the frequency band continues to increase. In particular, 5G technology is particularly complicated. The world's mainstream 5G frequency band is 3.5GHz. However, the 5G frequency bands used in each country are different. The FDD band supported by the iPhone13 reaches 19 and the 5G frequency band reaches 17 to adapt to different frequency bands in the world.

Multi -generation mobile communications technology coexist and each generation of mobile communication technology also uses many frequency bands at the same time, which has caused operators' mobile communication networks to be extremely complicated, so that the operator's own operation and maintenance team is difficult to bear daily operations and maintenance. More operators have begun to outsourcing the operation and maintenance of mobile communication networks to professional communication equipment vendors.

In the case of increasingly complicated mobile communication networks, the total number of Ericsson employees decreased from 117,000 in 2015 to 101,000 in 2021. The total number of Nokia employees was only more than 80,000, and the total number of Huawei employees was as high as 195,000 People, Huawei's number of employees is more naturally done in terms of operation and maintenance.

In fact, in the 3G era, the reason why Huawei can run out in the European market is that it can provide customized services and higher -quality operation and maintenance services for European operators. It can be seen that Huawei has long been better than Ailin and Nokia in operation and maintenance.

Huawei's operation and maintenance technology is more high -quality. It is also inseparable from it in the Chinese market for more than 20 years. At that time, China's mobile communication network belonged to the seven nations and eight systems. Huawei could not technically compete with communication companies. The rural market willing to enter the hard rural market has trained a strong and dare to dare to stabb the operation and maintenance team in the difficult rural market.

Today, China is the world's first large -scale construction of 5G networks. The number of 5G base stations built in China accounts for 60 % of the number of 5G base stations in the world. China also has the world's most complicated mobile communication network. 4G and 5G networks, and Huawei occupies half of the domestic market, which further enhances Huawei's strength in operation and maintenance.

Perhaps the network interruption of Rogers, Canada is accidental, but if it is still provided by Huawei, maybe Huawei, which is experienced and excellent technology, can provide services for it, then its network interruption time may be much shorter, which proves that it proves that Overseas operators should still cooperate with Chinese communications equipment vendors and win a win -win situation.
