Those I know are DIGL and EXFO and looking at EXFO's F-1 filing, I find the following under "competition:" Generally, our competitors fall into two categories. The first category consists of global electronic test and measurement manufacturers, who complement their broad range of products with fiber-optic test, measurement and monitoring equipment. These companies include Agilent Technologies, Inc., Wavetek Wandel & Golterman, Anritsu Corporation Ando Corporation, Telecommunications Technique Corporation (TTC Dynatec Division), Tektronics, Inc., GN Nettest and Newport Corporation. The second category refers to niche companies in the fiber-optic test, measurement and monitoring industry. These companies typically have limited product lines and are often geographically limited in their customer base. Such companies include Santec Corporation, Photonetics, Inc., Fotec, Inc., ILX Lightwave Corporation and Kingfisher International PTY Ltd. We also face competition from JDS Uniphase Corp., an optical component and value-added optical module vendor that designs and markets its own line of test and measurement instruments. Hope this helps. Pat
