The city of Ekurhuleni secures its electricity grid with Huawei

Ekurhuleni, a major city in South Africa, has upgraded its electricity grid. Facing connectivity challenges, the city chose Huawei technology to transform its network. The obsolescence of its Wi-Fi 5 infrastructure was causing signal and security issues. To address these challenges, Ekurhuleni adopted Wi-Fi 7. This choice enables faster wireless access and wider coverage, enhancing the efficiency of its services.

Furthermore, Huawei's Wi-Fi Shield technology protects data transmissions by generating noise that deters intrusions. The strategic use of protected zones ensures prevention against unauthorized eavesdropping, addressing the city's security concerns. A digital map has been deployed, providing centralized management for operation and maintenance, thereby reducing costs.
