"These patents further protect Enablence's Dispersion Bridge technology used for the design and manufacture of planar lightwave circuits [PLCs] for optical components," explained Arvind Chhatbar, the CEO of Enablence Technologies. "The Planar Waveguide Reflective Diffraction Grating patent provides broad protection over Enablence's Dispersion Bridge grating technology while the Double Diffraction Grating Planar Lightwave Circuit patent provides broad protection of Enablence's PLC filter architecture for fiber-to-the-home components.
"These two patents are further endorsement that Enablence is well positioned to address the emerging fiber-to-the-home market with Planar Lightwave Circuit based triplexers and diplexers," Chhatbar added. "Enablence is extremely proud to secure these two Dispersion Bridge technology patents and to further expand our patent portfolio."
