More facts, against your fear-mongering, Auric.
Lightpath's patented Gradium applications go far beyond their current primary product, collimators. LP's partially owned subsidiary, Lightchip is using Gradium, for semiconductor applications, which include telecommunication, but will most likely go much further into ultra-high speed broad-use photonic semiconductor applications?
Nevertheless, there's a lot to be said for the market value of selling collimators, especially ones that perform, as follows: 1. Focus much better than any others on the market. 2. Withstand 10x the amount of power. 3. Are customizable, for each bulk order, to meet very specific demands. 4. Will sell for less than the current competitor, due to automated laser polishing and fusion.

I suggest that you go to the Lightpath website index lightpath.com Note the menu list has topic headers, which can be clicked on to open further, more specific topics, which follow:
General-Purpose Singlets and Doublets Catalog Applications Catalog lens and profile updates (software) Distributors Standard Warranty __________________ You may find much info about Lightpath's wide-range of applications for non-telecom use, medical endoscopes, mechanical boroscopes, lasers, etc. It's just that they don't have the money-making potential of the huge fiber-optic telecom build-out, which Lightpath has squarely positioned the company for. That brilliant and perfectly timed strategy will be very rewarding. __________________ I suggest doing the same for the fiber collimators description, headers, which follow" Fiber Collimators Lenses Assemblies Switches __________________
Lightpath's patented high-technology, with regard to the path of light for use in fiber-optic telecom, will be a big winner, with growth to continue for many years to come, in my researched opinion.
