Huawei Unveils Enhanced AI Campus Solution at Network Summit 2026
Johannesburg, July 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — During the Huawei Network Summit 2026 in South Africa, the company introduced its upgraded Xinghe AI Campus Solution tailored for the Southern Africa region. This launch aligns with Huawei’s vision of fostering secure and intelligent connectivity. The event also featured the AirEngine Wi-Fi 7 CSI Sensing Challenge Awards, emphasizing Huawei’s dedication to advancing industry intelligence through collaboration with customers and partners.
Core Features of the Upgraded AI Campus Solution
The enhanced Xinghe AI Campus solution is distinguished by three key features: ultra-fast wireless connectivity, comprehensive security measures, and network autonomy. Each of these attributes positions Huawei as a leader in modern networking solutions.
Ultra-Fast Wireless Connectivity
Huawei’s first AirEngine Wi-Fi 7 Advanced Access Point (AP) incorporates innovations expected in Wi-Fi 8, enhancing both speed and reliability. Notably, the Intelligent Coordination Scheduling and Spatial Reuse (iCSSR) technology minimizes co-channel interference, thereby significantly boosting single-user speeds in continuous networking contexts. Additionally, the Advanced Same Frequency Network (ASFN) technology consolidates multiple APs into a singular “super AP,” allowing for seamless network roaming with zero packet loss.
Comprehensive Security Framework
The upgraded AI campus solution features a robust security framework that encompasses asset, connectivity, spatial, and privacy security. With the rise in “dumb” terminals across sectors like government and finance, Huawei’s solution employs AI clustering to accurately identify these devices with a 95% success rate. Moreover, Smart Anomaly Detection (SmartAD) quickly identifies behavioral anomalies in device traffic, allowing for proactive threat mitigation.
Advanced Network Autonomy
Huawei’s solution leverages powerful AI-driven capabilities for automatic operations and maintenance (O&M). Utilizing the iFlow capability, it offers comprehensive flow experience analysis, facilitating quick identification of quality of experience (QoE) disruptions and providing complete path visibility. Through AI-enhanced global decision-making and real-time fault isolation, the system can resolve 80% of wireless issues autonomously.
Insights from Huawei’s Leadership
During the Xinghe AI Secure Campus roundtable, Alex Sun, Vice President of Huawei’s Data Communications Product Line, spoke about the urgent need for robust solutions in light of increasing security challenges and traditional O&M inefficiencies. He emphasized that Huawei’s upgraded AI campus solution is vital for local customers, enabling them to achieve ultra-fast, secure, and intelligent connectivity, ultimately accelerating their digital transformation journeys.
Promoting Industry Adoption of Wi-Fi 7 Technologies
To further the industry-wide integration of Wi-Fi 7 CSI sensing technology, Huawei initiated the AirEngine Wi-Fi 7 CSI Sensing Challenge. This campaign is designed to collect insights from customers and partners while exploring innovative service scenarios. At the awards ceremony, Mr. Lan Junming, Marketing Director of Huawei’s Enterprise Network Marketing & Solutions Sales Department, recognized local winners from Southern Africa. Huawei remains committed to collaborating with stakeholders to uncover new applications for Wi-Fi CSI sensing technology.
Looking ahead, Huawei aims to intensify its efforts in developing AI-powered secure and intelligent campus networks, driving substantial momentum towards the advancement of high-quality secure AI campuses.
