Leading a New Future With Fibre: YOFC showcases groundbreaking AI innovations at MWC Barcelona

On March 3, as the global communications and technology community converged in Barcelona, Spain, for MWC Barcelona 2025, Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (YOFC) took center stage with its visionary theme, "Leading a New Future With Fibre." During the exhibition, YOFC (Booth 5A30, Hall 5) showcased innovative products and solutions across five core scenarios: 5G Advanced Connectivity, AI Intelligent Computing Center, Internet of Energy, Intelligent Traffic, and Enjoy Digital Life.

5G Advanced Connectivity Lays an Optical Framework for a Connected Future

Targeting the evolving demands of 5G-A and 6G, YOFC highlighted key innovations, including the G.654.E optical fibre, known for its ultra-high-speed, capacity, and long-distance transmission capabilities. Other featured exhibits included the versatile GenBand optical fibre, designed to support backbone, metropolitan area, and access networks across multiple applications, and high-end multi-mode optical fibres that boost data center efficiency. Additionally, YOFC presented a variety of specialized optical fibres tailored to meet diverse market requirements.

The G.654.E fibre stands out in the industry for its combination of a large effective area and low attenuation coefficient. This makes it the industry's preferred choice for current 400G and 800G, as well as future Tbit/s ultra-high-speed transmission technologies. For over a decade, YOFC has been at the forefront of developing G.654.E fibre technology. Leveraging its technological expertise and lineup of competitive products, YOFC has successfully deployed its fibres on a large scale in network infrastructure projects for the three major Chinese carriers, the State Grid, and for key telecom operators in multiple countries, including the Philippines and Brazil.

Cutting-Edge Optical Fibre Enables Lightning-Fast Data Channels for AI-driven Smart Computing Centers

Focusing on AI data center scenarios, YOFC has introduced the Smart Computing Solution, which integrates advanced optical fibres, including hollow core and multi-core variants, and top quality multimode fibres alongside 400G/800G optical modules and eco-friendly cabling. These technologies enhance computational power while emphasizing sustainability, guiding the industry towards a greener, sustainable future. 

Hollow core fibre, often cited as the "disruptive technology for next-generation optical communication," reduces transmission delay by some 34% compared to traditional solid fibres. It offers a new high-performance channel for intelligent computing networks and distributed large models. Leveraging years of experience and technical expertise in large-scale fibre and cable production, YOFC stands at the forefront of the industry in the mass manufacturing of extended-length, ultra-low-loss (<0.1dB/km) hollow core fibres. The company is fully equipped to deliver premium products for extensive commercial applications.
