COMMUNICATION

In recent years, wavelength-division multiplexing systems are proliferating in optical communications. One of the key devices in such systems is a high-power pumping laser for optical amplifiers. Furukawa Electric has developed high-power pumping laser modules with world's top-ranked output power, establishing the highest share in the world market. The success of the product is the result of integration of Furukawa's proprietary technologies and know-how fostered in the field of industrial materials including semiconductor lasers, optical fiber connection, laser welding as well as heat dissipation and device cooling.
In terms of Internet, Furukawa's long-nourished technologies such as networking equipment and transmission system are coming into flower.
Thus, Furukawa Electric is energetically transforming into a system manufacturer covering a wide field of hardware and software, while pursuing every possibility in the field of optical communications.
