BroadLight partners with AlCircuits to enhance rapid adoption of GPON and high-speed fiber access solutions in Brazil

SANTA CLARA, USA: BroadLight, the leading supplier of fiber access processors, announced today that it has signed AlCircuits, a leading supplier of optical and semiconductor solutions for the Brazil market, as its exclusive distributor in Brazil.

“AlCircuits has unique technology and logistics know-how to serve our existing customers in Brazil, and an intimate knowledge of the telecom/fiber access market in Brazil that will grow both BroadLight business and accelerate adoption of GPON and high-speed fiber access technology in Brazil and elsewhere in South America,” said Wade Giles, VP of Americas Sales at BroadLight.

Access equipment makers worldwide have their eye on Latin America as one of the potential high-growth areas for fiber access and GPON in particular. BroadLight is uniquely positioned to serve the Brazilian market, with six local licensees of BroadLight technology. BroadLight believes AlCircuits will help existing and future licensees take advantage of “local content” competitiveness in Brazil.
