Recently, the official list of 2025 Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Centers has been released, and Shanghai Sino-Telecom Technology Co., Inc. has successfully won the prestigious municipal honor of 2025 Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Center by virtue of its complete technological innovation system, strong independent research and development capabilities, outstanding achievement transformation efficiency and industrial leading value. As one of the highest-level accreditations for enterprise technological innovation in Shanghai, this honor is an authoritative recognition of the company's decades of deep cultivation in the optical communication field and adherence to independent and controllable core technologies. It also fully affirms the company's development path driven by innovation and industrial empowerment through technology, injecting stronger impetus into the company's continuous deep cultivation in the open optical network field and iteration of core products.
The accreditation of Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Center has always been known for its rigorous review and high standards. It focuses on assessing enterprises in terms of R&D investment intensity, core intellectual property reserves, professional R&D team construction, technical breakthrough capabilities and industrial driving effect. Only benchmark enterprises with leading innovation strength and complete R&D systems in the industry can be selected. Since its establishment, Sino-Telecom has always taken technological innovation as the core lifeline of enterprise development, continuously increasing R&D investment, and investing more than 10% of its annual revenue in core technology R&D and product iteration all year round. The company has built a high-level professional R&D team led by senior industry experts, doctors and masters, and established a full-process innovation platform integrating cutting-edge technology R&D, product solution design, testing and verification, and achievement transformation. Step by step, it has built an independent and controllable core technical barrier, forming unique competitive advantages in core tracks such as open optical networks and data center interconnection.
Relying on the mature and efficient enterprise technological innovation system, the company focuses on market rigid demands and industrial pain points, and strives to build its core benchmark product - the DCI-BOX Data Center Interconnection Equipment, alongside a full set of targeted end-to-end optical network solutions. This product and integrated solution system are a concentrated reflection of the company's technical strength and the core carrier of the innovation achievements of the Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Center. Our tailored DCI solutions cover high-density data center interconnection, cross-regional long-distance transmission, intelligent cloud-network convergence, and flexible customized networking for enterprise and internet customers, forming a one-stop service system that integrates equipment supply, technical support and later-stage operation and maintenance. The DCI-BOX equipment, as the core hardware of the solution, is precisely tailored to the development needs of the digital economy, computing power networks and the national "East-to-West Computing" project. It breaks through the limitations of traditional hardware architecture, achieving 3.6T ultra-large capacity service access in a 1U height. Equipped with independently developed core coherent optical communication technology, it enables stable repeater-free transmission over hundreds of kilometers. At the same time, it innovatively adopts a hardware-software & optical-electrical decoupling architecture with SDN unified management and control, integrating multiple advantages of high-density integration, low-latency transmission and intelligent operation and maintenance. Paired with our customized open optical network solutions, it perfectly solves the core industrial pain points of data center cluster interconnection, cross-regional computing power scheduling and efficient intelligent operation and maintenance for global customers.
With excellent technical strength, stable product performance and complete supporting solutions, the DCI-BOX equipment and supporting optical network solutions have quickly gained wide market recognition. They are widely used in the three major domestic telecom operators, leading Internet enterprises and overseas communication markets, covering core computing power nodes in many provinces and cities across China, and providing reliable, efficient and customized interconnection services for global data center construction and computing power scheduling. It has achieved outstanding results in operator centralized procurement projects, winning high recognition and trust from global customers, and becoming a benchmark product and solution portfolio in the field of data center interconnection. From technological R&D to large-scale application, from single product supply to comprehensive solution output, from domestic market to overseas layout, the iterative upgrade path of DCI-BOX equipment and supporting solutions has always resonated with the improvement of the company's technological innovation system, fully demonstrating the strong empowerment of the Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Center for product innovation and solution research and development.
Striving forward with honor, we forge ahead steadily. Being awarded the 2025 Shanghai Municipal Enterprise Technology Center is not only an honor, but also a profound responsibility. In the future, Sino-Telecom will take this as a new starting point, continue to rely on the platform advantages of the municipal enterprise technology center, further increase investment in core technology R&D, tackle key core technologies in the optical communication field, continuously optimize and upgrade core products such as DCI-BOX, and continuously expand the global market layout.
At present, Sino-Telecom has firmly established itself as a globally leading provider of open optical network solutions, and the cumulative shipments of its DCI-BOX equipment have successfully exceeded 100,000 units. In the future, we will continue to take technological innovation as the engine and high-quality products as the link, provide more professional and efficient optical network solutions for global customers, boost the high-quality development of digital infrastructure, and continue to lead the global open optical network track.
