What GHT does

GHT (广州广哈通信股份有限公司, stock code 300711, ChiNext) is a state-controlled listed company providing intelligent command and dispatch communication systems for China's critical national infrastructure. Founded in 1995 as a joint venture with U.S. Harris Corporation and now a core member of Guangzhou Digital Technology Group, the company serves power grids, railway, defense, emergency response, and oil/petrochemical customers including State Grid, China Southern Power Grid, China Three Gorges, China Railway, and multiple military branches.

The product portfolio is organized around a "Core-Intelligence-Digital-Cloud" (核智数云) technology system spanning three platform generations: (1) HARRIS 20-20 circuit-switched dispatch systems (CCS and LCC models, 128–10,000+ ports); (2) IP-based softswitch platforms (SW9100/9200, SW8100), media resource servers (MS5200), access gateways, and trunk media gateways; and (3) the EC8800 converged communication server unifying voice, video, GIS, and AI-enabled dispatch. Supporting modules include network management (G2M5012), recording/inspection systems (MR4000/4800), dispatch terminals (ET series), and IP phones (VP510/3216/3212/3102), with a railway-specific line (SW9900-R/SW9300-R, RT800 consoles). R&D intensity runs at ~15% of revenue with ~30% of headcount in R&D, and the portfolio includes 580+ IP rights and ~100 invention patents.

Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) hardware sales of proprietary dispatch equipment (the primary stream), (2) software/systems integration combining softswitch, IMS, and converged platforms with industry-specific applications, and (3) professional services covering installation, training, and 24/7 technical support. Pricing is customized per enterprise engagement with multi-year contracts; the company operates direct enterprise field sales supplemented by a nationwide channel partner network across 30+ service locations. The company reports double-digit revenue and net profit growth over multiple consecutive years and holds 60+ sector certifications.
