Toby, those numbers look pretty good. I have not been posting, because it seems nobody is watching. Here are a few other items, which YOU have probably seen:
SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- In order to address new and emerging telecommunications markets created by the explosive growth of erbium doped fiber amplifier and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) applications, SDL, Inc. (NASDAQ:SDLI) has announced a new, low cost 980 nm pump module. Taking advantage of a new optical design and several manufacturing efficiency improvements has enabled the introduction of this product at a significantly lower price. Donald R. Scifres, chairman and chief executive officer said, "We expect this product to contribute substantially to the cost reduction objectives of our customers while at the same time increase our factory efficiency to support the rapid increase in business we see in this product line. As an integrated manufacturer of semiconductor lasers, fiber-coupled modules and fiber Bragg gratings, SDL is uniquely positioned to integrate these key elements into pump modules with performance and cost advantages." Like other SDL pump modules, the SDL-2400 series has been thoroughly tested for reliability and ruggedness according to Bellcore testing guidelines. It uses the same patented fiber Bragg grating technology to stabilize the power and wavelength as found in SDL's high power pump module products. Kink-free optical power up to 110mW is available in this new model |
