MILPITAS, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 29, 2011) - JDSU (NASDAQ: JDSU) (TSX: JDU) today announced a new segment for its Industry View campaign that highlights JDSU experts and customers as they discuss topics including 100G and next generation networks at the annual European Conference and Exhibition on Optical Communications (ECOC) 2011 held last week in Geneva, Switzerland.

"JDSU is working closely with customers to reduce the size, cost and power of our optical component technology for next generation networks," said Brandon Collings, chief technology officer of Optical Communications at JDSU. "We align our technologies with customers' needs -- it's a very collaborative and iterative process that allows us to come out with disruptive new solutions that really help advance their product lines."

"Networks are getting far more complicated and intelligent," said Paul Brooks, product manager of High Speed Transport at JDSU. "JDSU collaborates with a range of companies so that end-to-end testing works seamlessly across network architectures to ensure the quality of service that users expect, especially as 100G networks start moving into the mainstream."

At the ECOC conference, JDSU also announced a suite of new optical products to enable Self Aware Networks of the future and new modules for 40G network transmissions. The products are being designed to support the growing volume of high-bandwidth and unpredictable traffic flooding networks as people and businesses increasingly use on demand applications such as video as part of their daily lives.
