O
ver the past few years, we have brought in some of the interconnect industry’s top
professionals to augment our terrific longer-tenured staff here at Glenair. We have
also made significant investments in manufacturing capacity to keep pace with growing
sales. These investments in talent and capacity are making a significant impact in our
fiber optic business.
Adopting a "Special Team" approach to the fiber optic business,
we applied dedicated resources to build a world-class organization with a singular focus:
to provide the industry’s best availability and customer service in tactical fiber optic
interconnect systems. In just the past year, we have added four regional fiber optic
Sales Applications Managers in North America, and another in Europe. These new
field managers are the fiber optic industry's "cream of the crop" who, between
them, have nearly 100 years combined experience in fiber optics application development.
Truly, this is the ultimate "Special Team", ready to take action on both fiber optic
and EMI/EMP filter connector opportunities throughout the Mil-Aero marketplace.
At the factory, we have enhanced our application sales support team to further improve the
speed of our quoting, expediting and technical support. As with the Sales Applications
Managers, we brought in some of the industry’s most experienced fiber optic engineers
as well as fiber optic production control specialists to enhance our already
top-flight factory team. We are now perfectly positioned to rapidly tackle virtually
any custom product design, prototyping or manufacturing assignment. The expansion of
our fiber optic operation has also included the ongoing development of our state-of-the-art
fiber optic fabrication cell. This expanded capacity allows us to build the finest
close-tolerance, high-reliability cable assemblies. Perhaps most importantly, we
have continued to add new fiber optic part numbers, including a wide range of
connectors and termini, to our Same Day inventory‐everything neatly bagged and
tagged and ready for immediate shipment.
We have the finest talent in the fiber
optic industry. Our newly-expanded factory capacity and full-service design and
prototyping capabilities combined with our ever-growing Same Day stock, truly
makes Glenair the winning "Special Team" in high-reliability fiber optics.
