As Huawei eKit continues to grow and drive technological innovation, it remains committed to delivering robust digital infrastructure products and solutions tailored for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The company consistently provides reliable, forward-thinking solutions while continuously refining and enhancing its product portfolio to meet evolving business needs. This commitment was evident at Mobile World Congress (MWC), where Huawei eKit took part in a product launch event themed “Explore New Horizons and Create a Better Future Together.” The event highlighted the company’s dedication to empowering SMEs through cutting-edge technology and collaborative innovation.

During the event, Huawei eKit unveiled more than 20 new distribution products tailored to nine major sectors, including office, hospitality, and education. Each Huawei eKit product is engineered to deliver high performance while ensuring simple deployment and easy management. Through this expanded portfolio, Huawei eKit reinforces its commitment to advancing digital and intelligent transformation for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). By continuously innovating its product offerings, the company aims to enable smarter operations, improve efficiency, and support sustainable business growth across diverse industries.

Build smarter connectivity using Huawei eKit solutions

Within the datacom domain, the newest Huawei eKit product offerings are designed to make daily network performance faster and more reliable. The eKitEngine AP572 and AP673E deliver stable Wi-Fi 7 coverage in classrooms and large meeting rooms, ensuring smooth online collaboration. The eKitEngine S310 switch provides 2.5 Gbit/s speeds and PoE across all 48 ports, making it a practical choice for schools and business hotels. For security, Huawei also launched the eKitEngine USG6000F-S, an AI-powered firewall that offers reliable protection at a cost-effective level. Together, these solutions show how a Huawei eKit product can combine performance with ease of deployment.

In the MiniFTTO space, each Huawei eKit product focuses on integration and efficiency. The eKitOptix F700D simplifies installation by combining optical access and Wi-Fi 7 into one device. The eKitOptix FG736 enhances wireless performance for modern offices. Meanwhile, the eKitStor Xtreme 200E SSD and the portable eKitStor Shield 210 provide fast, secure storage options for daily business needs. These solutions allow SMEs to build flexible networks without overcomplicating their infrastructure.

Collaboration is equally important. The IdeaHub S3 improves meeting experiences with a 4K camera, high-quality audio, and built-in AI features. As another example of a thoughtfully designed Huawei eKit product, it supports clearer communication in hybrid work environments.

Beyond individual devices, the upgraded SME office network solution brings everything together.

The solution can handle up to 120 simultaneous HD video conferencing streams, helping businesses stay productive even during busy periods.

To demonstrate the capabilities of the solution, the company partnered with the prestigious European hotel to establish the Global Smart Hotel Showcase. This initiative presented Huawei eKit product’s ultra-fast hotel network solution to distribution partners within a live hospitality environment, offering a practical illustration of its performance and scalability.

Empowering SME Growth with Huawei eKit Philippines

Althea Loja — Tue, 20 Jan 2026 09:41:27 +0000

Following Huawei’s 2023 announcement of Huawei eKit– a comprehensive solution designed to support SMEs on their digital transformation journey, MEC Networks kicks off 2026 by proudly adding Huawei eKit to its roster of globally recognized ICT brands.

Huawei eKit: Designed Specifically for SMEs

In the Philippines, high-speed and high-performance networking, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence are some of the digital technologies that businesses quickly adopt to enhance efficiency and connectivity with clients. These solutions lead to smarter work, enhanced partnership, and new sources of income. However, next-generation technology may seem daunting to several small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) because of high initial costs, technical demand, and insufficient IT capacity. This digital divide can see SMEs lagging behind bigger and better-financed competitors.

Recognizing these challenges, Huawei introduced HUAWEI eKit, a dedicated sub-brand built to support the digitalization journey of SMEs. Available through trusted partners in the Philippines such as MEC Networks, it delivers end-to-end ICT solutions that combine networking, collaboration, storage, and management tools. Backed by the extensive knowledge MEC Networks has in enterprise networking as well as local deployments, SMEs do not only obtain the latest technology, but also professional design, deployment, and support that is specific to Philippine business environments.

Enterprise-Grade Networking Made Simple

Huawei eKit offers extensive networking solutions that are tailored to modern SME settings. Products such as GE and 2.5G access switches to Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 access points support high-speed connectivity in offices, schools, hotels, and shopping areas with high levels of reliability. Some of the solutions like MiniFTTO (Fiber-to-the-Office) enable companies to substitute the conventional copper cabling with fiber, which provides greater bandwidth, greater stability, and future-proof infrastructure with minimal installation involved.

Simplified Management, Stronger Growth

With AI-fueled monitoring, QR-codes configuration, and centralized control, SMEs are now more efficient in complex network management with the Huawei eKit App – enabling IT teams to work smarter and quicker. With the eKit rapidly developing, adding new features of advanced collaboration, secure storage services, and intelligent network optimization, the Filipino SMEs can now enjoy the technology that is previously available only to big businesses. Huawei eKit Philippines is enabling businesses to open up to growth, remain competitive and feel more comfortable playing in a more inclusive digital economy by reducing barriers to adoption.

Through this strong partnership, organizations in the Philippines can now utilize Huawei eKit solutions, with the support of local expertise of MEC Networks to allow businesses to develop reliable, high performance and easy to manage infrastructure of networks. Together, Huawei eKit and MEC Networks help SMEs improve connectivity, strengthen operational efficiency, and support digital-first business environments.

The next generation of SME connectivity in the Philippines begins here, with Huawei eKit and MEC Networks.
