2017 China Mobile Global Partner is being held in Guangzhou The theme of this year's conference is 'Create a bright future with more than one thing,' and it is learned that more than 5,000 guest representatives from the global industry chain attended the conference.As an important partner of China Mobile Intel is participating in numerous products including 5G networking solutions, artificial intelligence innovations, and the world's leading wafers of 10-nanometer process technology, etc. In addition, China Mobile jointly announced at the conference that at the ODCC (Open Data Center Committee ) Launched Open Telecom IT Infrastructure, an open IT infrastructure project for telecom applications.
5G has become the hottest topic, Intel has demonstrated many achievements
5G logo can be seen anywhere in the exhibition site, many manufacturers also 5G as their own propaganda focus, Intel also demonstrated a variety of 5G related products.
Among them, Intel's latest generation of '5G Mobile Test Platform', the basis for early 5G device innovations in the device business, enables rapid field and interoperability testing of 5G networks and devices. 'Performance and flexibility' with high-performance, reprogrammable and software-driven processors - FPGA and Core i7, for quick updates; second, 'full band support'; colleagues supporting 3.5GHz, etc. 6GHz band and millimeter wave band (including 28GHz and 39GHz).
Another 5G FlexRAN network on display at the show attracted a lot of attention as it was an agile, cloud-ready platform that offers the best 5G solution that runs entirely on Intel Xeon processor-based servers and is easy to implement Scalability to meet a variety of business scenarios such as vRAN, MEC, to provide high-throughput, low latency 5G wireless connection.
In addition, there is a 5G Ready Intel Xeon scalable processor that is the next generation platform for cloud-optimized 5G networks with dramatically increased network workload performance and superior scalability and flexibility compared to previous generations , To provide the most powerful support for network transformation.
In terms of 5G chips, in fact, Intel has already announced the latest developments and future plans before the show, including the XMMTM 8060 modem expected for commercial terminal equipment in 2019. It will be Intel's first chipset to support full 5G non-independent and Standalone NR, and multi-mode commercial 5G modems for various 2G, 3G (including CDMA) and 4G legacy modes.
The Intel XMM ™ 7660, which will be shipped in 2019 and is commercially available, supports the Cat-19 feature and supports speeds of up to 1.6GB per second and the XMM ™ 7560 modem released at the 2017 World Mobile Congress. Mega-class speed.
China Mobile United Intel to launch OTII project, will establish an open, standardized server technology program
In addition to product demonstrations, Intel also announced with China Mobile that it will launch Open Telecom IT Infrastructure, an open IT infrastructure project for telecom applications at the ODCC (Open Data Center Committee).
The primary goal of the OTII project is to create a deep-tailored, open standard, uniform and standardized server technology solution for the IT transformation of the telecommunications industry. This project is jointly organized by China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, China TrustCorporation and Intel Corporation. Initiated by ODCC.
According to the introduction of technical experts from China Mobile and Intel at the startup conference, the OTII server will focus on the future business needs of the IT application scenarios of operators' networks. The project will introduce technologies such as network acceleration and NUMA balanced; uniform hardware BIOS settings and device management interfaces; Unified core device selection and hardware configuration and so on, in order to enhance the performance, stability and compatibility of the server, enhance the efficiency of deployment and operation and maintenance, and better support the development of future telecom services.
At present, the OTII project has determined the responsibilities of all parties involved in division of labor, including four major aspects:
As the end users, the first and third operators will propose to three operators, China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, and we mainly demand as end users, including motherboard specifications, preparation, selection of core components, hardware configuration, management of equipment Requirements and a series of like needs.
Second, as a third-party unit, ICT Institute undertakes some normative writing and third-party testing in the future.
Thirdly, as an x86 chip provider, Intel will provide the motherboard design and carry out feasibility verification at an early stage to continuously improve it to ensure continuity with Intel's subsequent CPU platform.
Fourth, the terminal server vendors in the future based on Intel motherboard reference design and user needs, improve the overall design of server hardware, research and development, trial production.
It is reported that at present the OTII project has been formally completed in the ODCC server working group and positively responded by the ODCC member units. Currently, over 10 participating companies include Huawei, Inspur, Lenovo, Dawning, ZTE, FiberHome and Xinhua III Mainstream servers and component suppliers are expected to follow up more vendors will join the project.
Du Wei Yang, Director of Marketing, Intel Network Platforms Asia, said in his speech that for the rise of the data economy and convergence of cloud networks, Intel is working with a wide range of partners to promote network transformation and build an agile, flexible and scalable network architecture. NFV is the key technology to realize this change.It has been Intel and China Mobile have been in the traditional IT, cloud computing, network and data center in the field of close technical cooperation.This co-start OTII project, it is both common Promoting the Latest Collaboration for NFV's Network Transformation and Cloud Transformation With strong technology accumulation and rich ecosystem resources, Intel is committed to continuing to work with operators, research institutes and server providers to lead the wave of network transformation .
In addition to the 5G products and the OTII project, Intel is presenting the technical solutions or products in 10nm process technology, small base station, artificial intelligence, 3D face technology, panoramic shooting and live broadcast, smart home, etc. at this China Mobile Partner Conference .
