The strategic partnership aims to serve India’s growing demand for connected devices and pave the way for Made-in-India electronics to reach export markets.
“This collaboration reinforces TP-Link’s commitment towards the ‘Make in India‘ vision and bolsters India’s resolve to become the global hub for telecom and electronics manufacturing,” the two companies said in a release.
Under the partnership, Optiemus Electronics Ltd (OEL) will be manufacturing a range of key telecom and IoT products like GPON (ONT), cameras (Security and Surveillance), Home Wi-Fi routers, Enterprise Routers, Modems/ Gateways, SOHO Switches, and other network expansion devices.
These products will be manufactured in OEL’s facility having a capacity to produce up to 6 million devices per year.
“This collaboration will also pave the way forward to develop and manufacture electronic products for export markets,” it said. OEL will continue to focus on developing a local supply chain to provide power adapter, mechanical parts, and more for TP-Link.
This pact will reduce import dependencies and provide better control on supply, the release said.
