Case Study: Optelian achieves scalable, agile optical manufacturing with Jabil

Jabil partners with Optelian to digitize optical networking

Optelian, a Canadian optical networking company serving North America, needed a better way to handle volatile demand, high-mix low-to-medium volume manufacturing, and the pressure to stay competitive with leading-edge optics and photonics technology. To reduce operational burden and shift to a more flexible cost model, Optelian turned to Jabil for end-to-end manufacturing services.

Jabil provided manufacturing, engineering, testing, logistics, and new product introduction support, while also helping Optelian leverage R&D prototyping and supply chain capabilities. As a result, Optelian was able to fulfill a 6,000-unit order on a tight deadline, speed time-to-market for next-generation products, reduce product costs, improve operational efficiency, and gain a scalable platform for future growth.
