Lucent Expands R&D in Shanghai

Lucent Technologies is expanding R&D activities at its wholly owned subsidiary in Shanghai, Lucent Technologies Optical Networks (LTON). Lucent, which is recruiting researchers and developers nationwide in China, said the decision will increase its ability to deliver next-generation optical, data and access network and service solutions throughout China.


Established in April 2000 with an initial investment of $29 million, LTON focused on design and development of metro optical transport systems, which have been widely deployed in the metro access networks of major Chinese telecom operators, including China Telecom and China Unicom, as well as networks of international operators including Deutsche Telekom and Japan's NTT.
