Finisar Corporation has announced that it has received the Excellence in Technology Alignment award from Cisco. This award honors Finisar’s superior technology offerings and longstanding commitment to Cisco’s business goals. As an ongoing testament to Finisar’s world class manufacturing capabilities and innovative technology vision, Finisar was also honored in 2003 with Cisco’s Optics Supplier of the Year award and again in 2005, with the Excellence in Delivery and Flexibility award.

“A truly successful partnership must go beyond exceptional delivery and production capabilities,” said Todd Swanson, vice president of sales and marketing, Finisar. “Suppliers must also be on the forefront of technology that maps to their partner’s business objectives. Being vertically integrated gives us the ability to quickly adapt to dynamic customer design needs while maintaining consistently high service and quality standards.”

“Finisar has demonstrated innovation in Optical packaging and manufacturing, as well as in IC design for optics, said John Kern, vice president, Global Supplier Management, Cisco. Finisar's leadership in many new technology areas has helped provide Cisco with a competitive advantage. We are proud to honor them with this award. ”
