Ltd. to meet the increased demand for its products in China.
"Continued investment in public infrastructure and production automation has led to significant growth in China’s renewable energy, transportation and industrial automation markets; applications that require a broad array of rugged and reliable fiber optic solutions,” says Hugh Hennessy, Firecomms’ Vice President and Sales and Marketing. “This trend, together with our new LC terminated solutions and RedLink® range of Avago Versatile Link compatible components, requires us to significantly expand our footprint in China to meet the growing demand for our products.”

Formerly at Avago Technologies’ Industrial Fiber Product division, Jiang brings a wealth of experience to the organization and is highly respected in the industrial fiber marketplace.”
Jiang will drive the expansion of Firecomms’ presence in the wider Chinese marketplace and, from Firecomms’ new regional sales office in Shanghai, will serve customers in Greater China through direct sales and regional distributors.
DongTing Technologies, the company’s newest distributor, has a proven track record in serving industrial customers, a key industry for Firecomms fiber optic transceivers. From its headquarters in Shenzhen, DongTing Technologies serves customers throughout China.
“Offering a perfectly aligned synergy with our product portfolio and excellent coverage throughout Mainland China, DongTing Technologies is an ideal partner in the fast-growing industrial fiber market,” says Jiang. “DongTing Technologies’ extensive experience working with customers in the power, automation and transportation industries is a big advantage as these are key markets for Firecomms fiber optical transceivers.”
