Published: Mar 18, 2026 13:48

On March 12, 2026, the UK Trade Remedies Authority issued a notice announcing its affirmative final anti-dumping determination on tinplate (Tin Mill Products) originating in China. It determined that Shougang Group had a dumping margin of 27.85, an injury margin of 62.39, and an anti-dumping duty of 27.85; other exporters had a dumping margin of 49.98, an injury margin of 88.00, and an anti-dumping duty of 49.98. It recommended imposing anti-dumping duties on the products concerned from China for a period of five years. The UK HS codes of the products concerned are 7210 11 00 10, 7210 11 00 90, 7210 12 20 10, 7210 12 20 90, 7210 12 80 10, 7210 12 80 90, 7210 50 00 10, 7210 50 00 90, 7210 70 10 15, 7210 70 10 91, 7210 70 80 20, 7210 70 80 25, 7210 70 80 92, 7210 70 80 95, 7210 90 30 00, 7210 90 40 10, 7210 90 40 90, 7210 90 80 20, 7210 90 80 91, 7210 90 80 99, 7212 10 10 00, 7212 10 90 11, 7212 10 90 19, 7212 10 90 90, 7212 30 00 20, 7212 30 00 30, 7212 30 00 80, 7212 40 20 10, 7212 40 20 91, 7212 40 20 93, 7212 40 20 99, 7212 40 80 12, 7212 40 80 15, 7212 40 80 30, 7212 40 80 35, 7212 40 80 80, 7212 40 80 82, 7212 40 80 85, 7212 40 80 87, 7212 50 20 11, 7212 50 20 19, and 7212 50 20 90.

China Mobile Unveils Single-Lane 400G Ethernet Tech Framework at Conference
On April 15, China Mobile took the lead in releasing the Single-Lane 400G Ethernet Physical Layer Report at the 2026 Cloud-Network Intelligent Connectivity Conference, systematically proposing a technical framework for single-lane 400G Ethernet physical layer. Today, as the parameter scale of AI large models continues to increase, the demand for high-speed interconnection among GPUs in intelligent computing centers is growing rapidly, urgently requiring greater interconnection bandwidth. GPU interconnection bandwidth has reached 1.6 Tbps. To achieve 3.2 Tbps intelligent computing center interconnection bandwidth, there are two paths: "increasing single-lane rate" and "increasing the number of lanes." With the existing 200 Gbps single-lane approach, 16-lane aggregation is required, imposing significant pressure on ports, heat dissipation, and cabling, making deployment difficult. With single-lane 400 Gbps, only 8-lane aggregation is needed, making it a superior and more feasible solution. Single-lane 400 Gbps is not simply a doubling of the rate, but rather a systematic innovation that breaks through the limits of physical transmission, facing multiple challenges in theory, materials, integration, and industry collaboration.
