Tianjin Jianhe Bafang attends Optinet China, advancing domestic core SOA tech.
2026/06/05
The two-day Optinet China Optical Network Seminar concluded successfully in Beijing on June 3–4, 2026. As a top authoritative industry summit for China’s optical communication, all-optical networks and high-speed optical transmission sectors, it gathered domestic telecom operators, leading equipment suppliers, optochip & component manufacturers as well as specialists from research institutes. Participants held in-depth discussions and industrial prospect analyses covering key topics including computing-oriented optical network upgrade, coherent communication evolution, localized optical component production, silicon photonics integration and cutting-edge CPO technologies.
Invited to the event, Tianjin Jianhe Bafang Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. engaged extensively in technical exchanges and industrial discussions centered on its self-developed domestic SOA (Semiconductor Optical Amplifier) technologies.

Focus on Industry Frontiers, Seize the Trend of Domestic Optical Network Localization
Currently, China accelerates all-optical network construction alongside booming growth in computing infrastructure, high-speed data communication, fiber sensing and silicon photonics industries. Independent supply of core active optical components is critical for upgrading the optical communication industrial chain. As an indispensable core component in optical links, SOA (Semiconductor Optical Amplifier) is widely deployed in high-speed optical modules, coherent communications, fiber sensing, laser systems and silicon photonics integration.


Forge Ahead in Domestic SOA to Consolidate Independent R&D of Optical Components
In 2024, the White Paper on SOA Technology and Application compiled under the lead of China Unicom Network Technology Research Institute was officially released. Our company took an in-depth part in its compilation by contributing technical findings and practical application cases. The recognition from this authoritative industrial platform fully affirms our R&D competence in domestic SOA and industrialization achievements, verifying our continuous devotion to core technologies for domestic optical networks and facilitating the standardized and large-scale commercialization of home-grown active optical components.

The company keeps upgrading product performance and has built a full lineup of domestic SOAs covering low-noise, high-linearity, polarization-maintaining and high-speed broadband types. These products suit diverse applications including high-speed datacom optical modules, coherent optical communication, distributed fiber sensing, precision optical research systems and silicon photonics link compensation.
Against imported counterparts, Jianhe Bafang’s domestic SOAs feature four core strengths: fast localized customization, short lead time, cost competitiveness and exclusive technical tuning. Solutions can be rapidly optimized per customer requirements on wavelength, gain, polarization and packaging to satisfy diversified and personalized demands of China’s industrial chain, delivering reliable homegrown alternatives for enterprises in optical communication and fiber sensing.
Connect Deeply with Industry to Boost High-quality Development of Domestic Optical Chips
During the conference, the technical team of Jianhe Bafang held extensive exchanges with industry experts and representatives from upstream and downstream enterprises across the industrial chain. In-depth discussions focused on key topics including upgraded SOA deployment in next-gen optical networks, breakthroughs in localized technology and challenges in scenario-based commercialization. The team absorbed cutting-edge industrial concepts while sharing the company’s R&D achievements on domestically-developed SOAs.

In-depth exchanges at the summit help Jianhe Bafang break industrial information barriers and clarify future development and upgrading paths for domestic active optical components. Meanwhile, industry peers gain full insight into the maturity and import-substitution capacity of home-grown SOA technologies.

Outlook: Stay Committed to Independent R&D and Accelerate Domestic Import Substitution
Going forward, Tianjin Jianhe Bafang will keep focusing on core SOA (Semiconductor Optical Amplifier) development. Driven by technological innovation, the firm will continuously upgrade product performance, expand its product portfolio and improve mass-production consistency.

Meanwhile, the company will keep engaging in high-end industrial technical exchanges and strengthening links with industrial resources. Focused on industry pain points and market demands, it will continue supplying high-quality, customizable, import-substitutable domestic SOA solutions for customers in optical communication, fiber sensing and silicon photonics, boosting the independent and high-quality development of China’s all-optical network industry.
