January 2024

ZKTEL which supplies optical computer equipment such as modules and transceivers to Tier 1 companies in China's datacom and mobile networking industries, is one of the lead customers for POET's 100G optical engines.

POET and ZKTel have been collaborating to develop a 100G CWDM4 optical transceiver module using POET optical engines supplied by POET's joint venture company, Super Photonics Xiamen (SPX).

"We have been working with ZKTel for more than a year and are pleased to announce a design win for POET with another module supplier that will go into production in 2024."

Through this collaboration, POET and SPX have a roadmap with ZKTel that goes beyond the initial 100G CWDM optical engine sales. "

ZKTel is in advanced stages of its module development, ZKTel expects to ramp to volume production in the second half of 2024.

Obviously, all things take a long time to develop in this industry, but they are developing.  Stay the course.
