Corning, known for inventing the world’s first low-loss optical fiber in 1970, has been a pioneer in optical fiber, cable, and connectivity solutions since that groundbreaking achievement.
As the global demand for bandwidth, fueled by the exponential growth of video usage, prompts networks to shift from copper to optical-based systems, Corning, with its unparalleled experience, stands uniquely positioned to design and deliver optical solutions covering every edge of the communications network.
The Optical Communications segment of Corning has undergone a recent transformation. Previously recognized as a manufacturer of optical fiber, cable, hardware, and equipment, it has evolved into a comprehensive provider of industry-leading optical solutions spanning the broader communications industry.
This segment is divided into two primary product groupings – carrier network and enterprise network. The carrier network product group primarily includes products and solutions for optical-based communications infrastructure, catering to services like video, data, and voice communications. Meanwhile, the enterprise network product group focuses on optical-based communication networks sold to businesses, governments, and individuals for their exclusive use.
