Finisar Opens State-of-the-art Production Facility In Wuxi, China - Quick Facts

(RTTNews) - Finisar Corp. (FNSR) Tuesday opened its new state-of-the-art production facility in Wuxi, China. The land provides 550,000 square feet of open space and will house two new multi-level buildings. While the first building is now open, the second building will begin construction by the end of 2013.

This facility will focus primarily on the manufacture of tunable and parallel transceivers, WSS modules, ROADM line cards, passive components, and high-end optical subassemblies used in VCSELs and detectors.

The company provides fiber optic subsystems and components that enable high-speed voice, video and data communications for telecommunications, networking, storage, wireless, and cable TV applications.

According to Finisar, it is one of only a few optics companies to operate its own manufacturing sites, which gives the ability to ramp up volumes and shift production from one product to another as needed.
