ICC news from the National Bureau of Statistics data show that in the first quarter of 2023, the cumulative value of domestic fiber optic cable production reached 78,361,000 core kilometres, with a cumulative increase of 2.1% in fiber optic cable production.

  With the release of the 'Overall Layout Plan for the Construction of Digital China', the construction of a strong network and digital China has been further accelerated and the integration of the digital economy with the real economy will be further deepened. milestones have been achieved in the construction of new information infrastructure such as 5G, gigabit optical network and computing power.

  The latest data from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) shows that by the end of March, China had built more than 2.64 million 5G base stations, with more than 17.93 million ports with gigabit network service capacity, realizing 'city to city gigabit' and 'county to county 5G'. By the end of March, China had 620 million 5G mobile phone users and over 100 million gigabit optical network users; in addition, the convergence application has gone deeper and deeper, with 5G applications covering 52 national economic categories, and the number of 5G and gigabit optical network 'double gigabit' network application cases nationwide exceeded 50,000.

  The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology pointed out that the next step will continue to consolidate the base of digital facilities, promote the 'broadband frontier', gigabit optical network 'chasing light action'; promote 6G, optical communications, quantum communications and other key core technologies to accelerate breakthroughs; promote 5G, gigabit optical network and other new generation of information The company will also promote the large-scale application of industrial Internet, focus on key areas to form innovative application demonstration benchmarks, and help the digital transformation of industries.

  In the relevant policies, as well as business development demand, fiber optic cable as 5G, gigabit optical network, arithmetic and other new infrastructure of the key underlying physical facilities, will also open a new cycle, a new round of growth.
