Abstract

German firm Siemens has signed a multi-million dollar deal to acquire PhotonicBridges, a Chinese company that develops optical transmissions systems equipment using a technology called synchronous digital hierarchy (SDH). Financial details were not available, but the purchase signals Siemens´s commitment to establishing its presence in China´s emerging high-tech manufacturing market. But Siemens is not stopping there, saying observers should expect a major deal in the next 12 to 24 months. Chinese media reports are speculating that the German firm is looking at Harbour Networks, a network equipment manufacturer that was founded by a former employees of China´s leading telecom products maker, Huawei Technologies
