Huawei Named Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant 2025

News Desk - 07/07/2025

Huawei announced that it has been named a Leader in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure. This marks the third consecutive year Huawei has earned this recognition. Huawei remains the only non-North American vendor positioned in the Leaders Quadrant, the company reported.

The announcement highlights Huawei’s commitment to innovation and customer-centric network solutions. Huawei emphasized its strong product capabilities, global service support, and rapid market responsiveness as key factors behind the recognition.

In addition, Huawei revealed its ongoing efforts to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into campus networks. These upgrades enhance wireless, security, application, and operations and maintenance (O&M) experiences. The company stated that these advancements support experience-centric 10 Gbps wired and wireless networks. This supports emerging use cases such as smart campuses, mobile finance, and digital healthcare.

Huawei introduced the industry’s first 5-radio Wi-Fi 7 access point (AP) in 2025. The company reported that this product strengthens its leadership in next-generation Wi-Fi. Technologies like intelligent digital pre-distortion (DPD) and intelligent Coordinated Scheduling and Spatial Reuse (iCSSR) bring Wi-Fi 8 innovations into Wi-Fi 7 APs. Huawei also integrated Wi-Fi, IoT, and sensing for blind-spot-free campus awareness, reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) by 50%.

Huawei further enhanced its Wi-Fi Shield portfolio, now supported by 13 AP models. These models are suited for indoor, outdoor, IoT, and high-density environments. The company reported innovations such as secure terminal access, fine-grained policy control, and Wi-Fi channel state information (CSI) sensing. Together, these form a robust zero-trust network architecture, addressing evolving security needs.

Moreover, Huawei revealed its focus on application experience upgrades. Technologies like iSAC (intelligent application identification), iScheduler (all-flow scheduling), and iFlow (all-flow analysis) ensure uninterrupted performance for key applications. Huawei’s VIP FastPass and per-packet power control technologies deliver optimal experiences for high-priority services.

Huawei also upgraded its O&M experience through AI Networking capabilities. Its “One Map, One Brain” architecture features a network digital map and AI agent NetMaster. This enables real-time application-level journey playback and minute-level fault locating. Huawei reported that automated resolution covers 80% of wireless faults. This allows a single operator to manage a campus with over 10,000 users efficiently.

Looking ahead, Huawei will continue innovating around customer needs. The company plans to advance AI-powered campus network deployments. Huawei also aims to collaborate with ecosystem partners to build “AI Campus” solutions. These efforts will enhance network experiences and operational efficiency in the AI era.
