Omron Network Products, a leading manufacturer of advanced fiber optic modules, announced the opening of a new, larger manufacturing and engineering facility to meet the needs of their growing customer base in the Video Over Fiber and other bandwith-intensive marketplaces.
The 17,725 square foot space located at 5700 Stoneridge Drive in Pleasanton, California, will become an immediate home to about 50 employees. “This larger facility will enable us to rapidly expand our manufacturing output while still maintaining a collaborative, innovation-based work environment” said Brian Peters, President of Omron Network Products. Mr. Peters went on to say that the new facility is an important part of plans to expand its footprint in Pleasanton, including adding 25 – 50 new positions at the company.
“Omron has been leading the way towards the adoption of fiber optics in the video transmission space for many years with bidirectional SX-series optical modules. Our next generation products that we will be designing and manufacturing at the new facility will change the way the industry looks at fiber solutions. Our new products will make upgrading long-reach equipment to HDMI™, Display Port™, and other high-definition protocols significantly easier and more robust than ever before”.
