I. Develop New Businesses and Restructure Operating Portfolio

High-Density Optical Telecommunications

Roadmap for the development of new eco businesses

Furukawa Electric has developed the expertise to construct complete packaged solutions in the field of optical telecommunications that support high-density, high-speed communications. From backbone to metro networks, our products and technologies encompass the full spectrum of the optical telecommunications field, from photonic components such as semiconductor lasers and optical amps to network devices, optical fiber cables, and transmission equipment.

In addition, with the spread of cloud computing,(Note) the need has arisen to focus on not only the conventional technology of telecommunications but also on data communications. Furukawa Electric possesses the technologies required for high-speed, high-density server storage solutions, including disk materials and optical inter connections.

As such, Furukawa Electric has established a superior track record of developing diverse technologies in the high-density optical telecommunications field. Leveraging this, we will continue to respond to the sophisticated needs of communications infrastructure.

(note)Cloud computing:
This denotes computing tasks and software accessed over a network instead of directly through a desktop computer or software.
