Notably, some of these products have already entered the small-batch supply stage, with expectations for large-scale shipments to commence in the first quarter of 2026. The company explained that its R&D and mass production strategies for the 1.6T optical modules are crafted with careful consideration of its technological expertise and prevailing market demands. For updates on specific advancements, stakeholders are encouraged to monitor the announcements published by the company on its designated information disclosure platform.
Regarding customer collaboration, CIG maintains a close working relationship with its core clientele through the Joint Development Manufacturing (JDM) model, which ensures a robust and stable supply chain.
