http://finance.yahoo.com/news/picometrix-division-luna-announces-7-203300502.html
Luna Innovations Incorporated (LUNA) today announced that its Picometrix division recently received a $7 million purchase order for its industry-leading 100G integrated coherent receivers (ICR). The ICR is critical to enable high-speed optical communication in long haul networks.
The Picometrix division of Luna manufactures and markets the fastest, most sensitive, most temperature-stable, and broadest-wavelength high-speed optical receivers (HSOR) available for both the Transmission and Test & Measurement markets.
“This order reinforces the value of our high-speed optical receiver technology to the telecommunications industry, and therefore we are pleased with the growth potential that it demonstrates for this area of our business,” said My Chung, president and chief executive officer of Luna. “Considering the continued level of deployment of new fiber optic networks, including 100G networks in Asia and North America, creating significant demand for our high-speed optical receiver and detector products, I believe we will see continued growth of this product line. Furthermore, this is strong evidence of the value that can be realized from our merger with Advanced Photonix, Inc. earlier this year.”
