NeoPhotonics receives Huawei’s Golden Supplier Award at Core Partner Convention
NeoPhotonics Corp of San Jose, CA, a vertically integrated designer and manufacturer of photonic integrated circuit (PIC)-based modules and subsystems for bandwidth-intensive, high-speed communications networks, has received the Golden Award as an Excellent Core Partner from China’s Huawei Technologies Co Ltd (one of the world’s largest manufacturers of optical networking equipment for the telecoms industry).
At an awards ceremony at Huawei's corporate headquarters in Shenzhen, NeoPhotonics was honored for its contributions as a supplier of innovative technology, plus high-quality and on-time delivery of its optical products for high-speed, agile and access communications networks.
Of the more than 1000 suppliers that Huawei works with each year, the award is given only to companies that consistently deliver the highest-performance and quality products that meet Huawei’s highly specialized requirements. Out of 30 vendors of optical products, Huawei selected six as Core Partners and, out of the six, four (including NeoPhotonics) were given the Golden Award for supplier excellence. This is the third time that NeoPhotonics has been recognized as a Huawei Core Partner.
“We are proud that NeoPhotonics has been integral to the success of Huawei, just as Huawei has been pivotal to the success of NeoPhotonics,” said NeoPhotonics’ chairman & CEO Tim Jenks at the awards ceremony. “We provide the highest value to our customers by not only delivering high-performance and high-quality products, but also by working seamlessly with our customers, leveraging our engineering strength, supply chain systems, and collaborative working relationships to anticipate their needs,” he believes. “This recognition by Huawei is a testament to the high-quality products and volume manufacturing capabilities of NeoPhotonics.”
Huawei has grown to become the second largest mobile network equipment provider in the world, serving more than 470 telecoms operators in over 130 countries worldwide. Huawei was one of the earliest customers of NeoPhotonics, which has supported Huawei’s expansion over most of the last decade.
