MediaTek and subsidiary Airoha Technology are unveiling an artificial intelligence-powered fiber network gateway platform at Network X 2025 in Paris, targeting telecommunications operators with promised performance improvements.
The platform combines MediaTek’s Wi-Fi 7 Filogic 680 chip with Airoha’s XGS-PON AN7581 chipset, according to the companies. They claim the system can boost network service efficiency by over 30% through AI-driven traffic analysis and optimization, though independent verification of these figures wasn’t immediately available.
The gateway supports three major software architectures used by carriers and incorporates up to 50 trillion operations per second of neural processing capability. Airoha said the system can reduce mean time to recovery by 40% through automated diagnostics and improve data throughput by 20% via AI-assisted interference management.
The announcement comes as MediaTek seeks to expand its footprint in the broadband gateway market, where Broadcom has maintained dominant market share in North America. MediaTek more than doubled its European gateway chip market share between 2023 and 2025, according to the company, capitalizing on the region’s transition to fiber networks and Wi-Fi 7 technology.
The platform will support applications including video streaming optimization and real-time network anomaly detection. MediaTek’s chips currently power over 2 billion connected devices annually worldwide.
