Huawei Recognised as a Leader in 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure
Huawei has been positioned as a Leader in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure for the third consecutive year. The company remains the only non-North American vendor in the Leaders Quadrant. Huawei states that this recognition highlights its focus on innovation and customer-centric network solutions, and reflects its product capabilities, global service support, and market responsiveness.
In the current AI era, Huawei is integrating AI into campus networks to enhance wireless, security, application, and operations and maintenance (O&M) experiences. These developments are intended to support 10 Gbps wired and wireless networks for emerging applications like smart campuses, mobile finance, and digital healthcare.
For wireless capabilities, Huawei introduced a 5-radio Wi-Fi 7 access point (AP) in 2025. The company states that this AP incorporates Wi-Fi 8 innovations into Wi-Fi 7, using technologies such as intelligent digital pre-distortion (DPD) and intelligent Coordinated Scheduling and Spatial Reuse (iCSSR). Huawei has also integrated Wi-Fi, IoT, and sensing to enable comprehensive campus awareness, aiming to reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) by 50%.
Regarding security, Huawei has expanded its Wi-Fi Shield portfolio to include 13 AP models for various environments. Features like secure terminal access, fine-grained policy control, and Wi-Fi channel state information (CSI) sensing are designed to provide all-domain security. These capabilities are intended to form a zero-trust network architecture.
For application performance, Huawei employs three intelligent technologies—iSAC, iScheduler, and iFlow—to maintain performance for key applications such as audio/video, cloud desktop, and office collaboration. The company also utilizes VIP FastPass and per-packet power control technologies for high-priority VIP services.
In terms of O&M, Huawei’s “One Map, One Brain” architecture, which includes a network digital map and the NetMaster network AI agent, delivers AI Networking capabilities. This design allows for real-time application-level journey playback and minute-level fault locating. Huawei reports that its intent-driven network O&M, natural language interaction, and automated resolution of 80% of wireless faults enable a single person to manage a campus with over 10,000 users.
Huawei stated that it will continue to innovate based on customer needs and advance AI-powered campus network deployments. The company also plans to collaborate with ecosystem partners to assist enterprises in building “AI Campus” to enhance network experiences and operational efficiency.
