Huawei, the Chinese tech giant, is renowned for its wide variety of consumer grade products ranging from smartphones to even home appliances. But another field where the company excels is the telecommunications/router market; as a report from Omdia (formerly IHS Markit, known analytics and research institute) has revealed that its routers are leading the global carrier market for 2019.
According to the Omdia report, Huawei has maintained its dominance in the router market since 2018. This marks the second year in a row that the company achieved the top spot. Similarly, in the backbone router market, Huawei has maintained the top position for three consecutive years as well. Furthermore, 2019 also marked the first time Huawei routers took to top seat in the metro router market, making Huawei the No 1 in the global carrier market in the world.
For those unaware, Huawei is a pioneering figure in the telecommunications industry. It is a leader in 5G networking and its supplementing equipment and technologies, and the continued investments in the field have been the key factor leading to this achievement. Currently, the company is also working with various governments from across the globe that is adopting the newer faster bandwidth.

Omdia’s report specifically brings up the customer centric approach Huawei has in the market. Other notable phrases used to describe the company’s success included its innovative products, next generation protocols and solutions and more. The dominance in the router field has also been accredited to various growths in the 5G networking and cloud computing fields.
The NetEngine 8000 series from Huawei is the only router in the industry that supports the E2E 400GE standards. In other words, the company has launched cutting edge routers that have yet to see a viable rival competing against it. This series of routers are capable of handling ten fold increases in traffic while also maintaining affordable per bit costs for large scale businesses.
Simply put, Huawei has been a class leader in this field providing very competitive and viable products to other businesses as well. The company originally started developing routers back in 1995, and the 25 years’ worth of investment in R&D is clearly paying off now. As of right now, Huawei routers are spread across 130 different nations, providing intelligent IP networks and other solutions to various markets.
