2019 World Optical Fiber and Cable Conference | YOFC: Embracing a new era of industry and cooperating to build a path for sustainable development

As the world's leading conference for the optical fiber and cable industry chain, the 2019 World Optical Fiber and Cable Conference brought together more than 500 global heavyweight optical fiber and cable manufacturers, world-leading telecommunications network companies, solution providers, technical experts, etc. During the conference, Zhuang Dan, Executive Director and President of Changfei Optical Fiber and Cable Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Changfei Company", stock code: 601869.SH, 06869.HK), delivered a keynote speech, and Ma Tai, Chief Scientist of Optical Fiber, delivered a technical speech, discussing the new future of global optical fiber interconnection.

At the meeting, Michael Finch, Head of Analysis at the Commodity Research Institute (CRU), introduced the development analysis and outlook of the global optical fiber and cable industry, and said that the current global optical fiber market is facing certain adjustments, but it is also the best time to discuss the latest developments such as 5G network deployment and hyperscale data center investment. In his keynote speech, Zhuang Dan shared the current situation of China's 5G construction, as well as the high-quality products and solutions that Changfei can provide to the market and industry in the era of the Internet of Everything, and expressed cautious optimism about the optical fiber and cable industry in the 5G era.

Ma Tai, Chief Scientist of Optical Fiber of YOFC, together with representatives of Corning, Dow Chemical, Fujikura and Sumitomo of Japan, exchanged the most advanced technology development in the industry. In his speech, Ma Tai analyzed the relationship between the current global demand, construction volume and application demand for optical fiber; from the perspectives of optical fiber technology to optical cable applications, he described how YOFC's series of technologies and product solutions will serve and promote the development of the global information and communication market in the long term for the current and future markets.

Ma Tai said that 5G will become the main driving force for the next wave of optical fiber consumption. With the official commercial use of 5G in China, 5G fronthaul solutions and 5G construction with ultra-dense networking will consume a large amount of optical fiber, which will bring new opportunities to China and the global optical fiber and cable market. In recent years, the industry's research on multi-core few-mode optical fiber based on space division multiplexing technology and its related applications has continued to heat up. Such optical fiber will have broad application prospects in the fields of high-speed, large-capacity transmission and high-density access to data centers. In addition, products such as ultra-low loss optical fiber, bend-insensitive optical fiber, and high-density optical cable will also give full play to their performance advantages in the future 5G era to help build 5G networks. Over the years, YOFC has continued to develop these technologies, has deep technical reserves, and is ready for 5G network construction.

At present, 5G has turned the ideal of the Internet of Everything into reality. YOFC has seized the development opportunities of the national "network power" and "manufacturing power" strategies, and joined hands with industry partners to build an information ecosystem, usher in a new era of industry, and build a path of high-quality sustainable development.
