Anritsu opens new R&D and manufacturing facility in San Luis Obispo
Anritsu Company, a global manufacturer of information and communications, test and measurement products and services, announced it is opening a new satellite R&D and manufacturing facility in San Luis Obispo on May 31, 2001.
The new light industrial facility will design and manufacture components for use in Anritsu's fiber-optic component product offerings. These components, called "High Speed Devices," modulate the light signal on the fiber and provide the data-carrying capacity and reliability of the fiber backbone on which many telecommunications companies depend.
Anritsu has signed a four-year lease in the former Earthlink building in San Luis Obispo. Currently the company is remodeling the facility to accommodate the high-tech assembly and manufacturing workstations for the micro electronic soldering process. Anritsu chose to locate the satellite R&D and manufacturing plant in San Luis Obispo because of the high number of skilled employees and the quality of life in the area.
