Additionally, as historical landmarks and important activity centers, Huawei has deployed next-generation Wi-Fi 7 APs in areas such as the main building, Lui Yau Hall, libraries, and study rooms to ensure stable and smooth network performance during peak periods such as online exams and ceremonies.

This collaboration is an important demonstration and practice in the joint effort to build smart education and explore the future of campus intelligent connectivity. Mr. He Weizhi mentioned, "Huawei hopes to continue working with HKU to further establish a high-quality educational environment, helping HKU consolidate its leading position in global higher education and providing excellent case references for more universities in Hong Kong, jointly opening a new chapter in digital education."
