NeoPhotonics is ramping its transceiver production capacity in Shenzhen, China, to 250,000 units per month to meet rapidly growing customer demand for its GEPON, GPON, SFP and XFP transceivers.

These active devices represent key building blocks for today's evolving FTTx, transport and reconfigurable optical networks.

"As an ISO 9001 and TL9000 certified company, we ensure consistent quality and reliability across all of our products and services", said Paul Schroeter, COO, NeoPhotonics.

"The TL9000 Quality Management System also helps drive supply chain efficiencies and improves supplier relationships".

"Given the essential roles that our products play in the global optical network infrastructure, TL9000 represents our ongoing commitment to delivering the most reliable and highest quality products and services to all of our customers worldwide".

NeoPhotonics is adding 2400m2 of manufacturing floor space at its production facilities in Shenzhen, China, to increase the total monthly manufacturing capacity for transceivers to 250,000 units.

The new capacity will primarily be used for different GEPON and GPON modules, as well various configurations of standard, CWDM, DWDM and bidirectional SFP transceivers and XFP modules.

NeoPhotonics will exhibit its expansive transceiver portfolio together with its pacesetting PLC, ROADM and MEMS products at OFC/NFOEC in Booth 3301 of the Anaheim Convention centre from 27th to 29th March 2007.
