At the Huawei Network Summit 2026 Europe, Huawei officially introduced its upgraded Stellar Intelligent Network Solution under the “Secure and Intelligent Connectivity” framework. The enterprise-grade portfolio update enhances fabric, wide-area, and campus network infrastructures to help organizations accelerate cross-industry artificial intelligence adoption while reducing overall deployment costs.
Stellar Intelligent Fabric Upgrades
The upgraded data center fabric relies on Huawei’s in-house 100T switches to build a two-tier, multi-plane architecture. This architecture quadruples network scale while cutting the required count of switches and optical modules by 30 percent, substantially lowering total cost of ownership. Network performance is further optimized by the Network Packet Load Balancing (NPLB) algorithm, which raises overall link utilization to 98 percent and increases artificial intelligence training and inference throughput by more than 7 percent.
In multi-vendor operating environments, Huawei’s xFlow technology provides automated full-flow analysis to isolate faults within a single minute. Complementing this monitoring capability, the AI Eagle-Eye Engine performs root-cause analysis in minutes, bolstering network resilience across data centers.
Stellar Intelligent WAN Innovations
For wide-area connections, the Stellar Intelligent WAN employs the proprietary Starnet lossless algorithm. This system achieves over 95 percent cross-regional processing efficiency and lowers dedicated leased-line costs by 60 percent. To safeguard sensitive corporate workloads, an advanced layer-based model partitioning technique processes raw data on-premises to mitigate external data leakages.
Hardware-level protection is reinforced by an integrated security card that blocks intrusions in real time and traces cyber threats in minutes with an accuracy rate exceeding 95 percent. The architecture also introduces an integrated Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) card that merges optical communications with quantum cryptography, lowering installation costs by more than 60 percent alongside APN6 data protection protocols.
Campus Networking and SME Products
The Stellar Intelligent Campus Network pairs multi-access point coordination with dynamic-zoom smart antennas, lowering wireless interference by 84 percent while doubling standard industry throughput. A complete lineup of multi-GE switches alongside flexible Right-to-Use (RTU) licensing reduces 10 Gbps campus network expenses by over 30 percent. Automated operations further compress the mean time to repair (MTTR) below five minutes.
Local intelligent inference on switches cuts threat identification windows from five minutes to under 10 seconds, backed by post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and Wi-Fi Shield defenses. At the enterprise edge, branch gateways equipped with over 20 embedded algorithms deliver millisecond-level threat blocking and detect 95 percent of unknown threats.
For small and medium-sized enterprises, Huawei expanded its eKit networking hardware portfolio. The additions include Aura10 and AR580 convergent gateways featuring integrated antivirus and intrusion prevention systems, S630 series 10GE core switches capable of managing up to 1,000 wireless access points, and AP362H wall-plate access points with internal smart antennas that boost signal gain 1.6-fold.
Low-Carbon Operational Architecture
To align enterprise operations with European environmental and low-carbon standards, Huawei integrated a three-tiered energy conservation framework. The mechanism applies power-saving optimizations across device, network, and operational levels to provide a sustainable network foundation for European businesses.
