Silicon Valley Photonics Testimonials

"The report SVP provided was perfect."

-Rob Ballow, Partner, ipValue


"Very impressive - MGH needs guys like you."

-Dr. Lawrence Haas, Research Manager, Dept of Hematology/Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital


"Silicon Valley Photonics has been an incredible resource for Brocade, and serves as our in-house 'photonics guru' since 1999. Additionally, Bob has broad knowledge about the supplier base, mechanics, board layout, electrical design rules, manufacturing, and EMI as they relate to optical data communications."

-Paul Bonderson, VP Engineering, Brocade Communications


"I have no hesitation in highly recommending Silicon Valley Photonics. Bob has an outstanding record of rapidly getting the job done through a combination of innovative ideas and practical in-depth understanding of the optical/opto-electronics field. I have personally worked with him in Honeywell in the early 80’s when he was immersed in optical fiber and sensor technology from the ground-floor of the industry, including making some of the early examples of such now-commonplace fiber-optic devices such as switches, fused couplers, and polarizers."

-Dr. Anis Husain, Operating Director, Incubic.; Former Chairman, CEO of OMM Inc.


"Silicon Valley Photonics has been particularly effective in driving optical issues in both standards and multisource argreement bodies. The latter is especially important because systems integrators like Brocade are usually excluded from participation in MSAs."
