Vendors To Spin Off Optical Assets

Many of the world's big telecom equipment vendors may end up spinning off their optical
networking divisions into separately quoted subsidiaries if the current stock market craze for all
things optical continues, according to financial analysts.

The first one to go this way may be Siemens AG siemens.com, which last Friday
(Feb 25) announced that it was planning a big organizational shake-up which will go into effect
on April 1. As part of this shake-up, Siemens plans to hive off its optical networking operations
into a separate U.S. company to be called Optisphere. Siemens declines to give further details,
but sources within the company don't rule out floating Optisphere shares in the U.S.
