ZTE spearheads Malaysia’s 5G revolution with its ‘Unfolding the Intelligent Future 2024’ event and receives the Malaysia Book of Records’ fastest 5G-Advanced live trial award.

GLOBAL leading provider of information and communication technology solutions ZTE Corporation announced the success of the “Unfolding the Intelligent Future 2024” event, which took place at the Four Seasons Hotel Kuala Lumpur on May 13.

The event, which has been held annually over the last decade, was graced by the presence of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). It featured a comprehensive showcase of ZTE’s cutting-edge innovations in 5G technology.

ZTE marked a significant achievement in 5G technology by reaching speeds of up to 28Gbps, a milestone first announced in October of the previous year.

This groundbreaking advancement resulted from strategic collaboration among Digital Nasional Berhad (DNB), Telekom Malaysia (TM), and ZTE.

It sets a new benchmark for connectivity, empowering network operators to deliver unmatched speeds and superior service quality.

This enhancement not only broadens the horizons for consumers but also creates new opportunities for businesses, paving the way for innovative applications and improved digital experiences.

ZTE Malaysia managing director Steven Ge said during his keynote speech, “Malaysia holds a key position in ZTE Corporation.

“It is an important country for us and we are committed to playing a significant role in its digital transformation journey.

“Our goal is to build the best-wired and wireless networks in the region, enabling seamless connectivity and driving innovation across various sectors,” he shared.

“This commitment is demonstrated by our recent showcase of the 5G millimetre wave (mmWave) with the world’s fastest download speed, which earned ZTE Malaysia the fastest 5G-A live trial by the Malaysia Book of Records (MBR).”
