The company also announced that because of its telecom-grade laser technology, product design, and stringent qualification and quality assurance systems, its laser product line has surpassed four million cumulative device hours with no field returns.

“Q1 has shown robust bookings in all our served markets and regions, with security and LIDAR coming in particularly strong. We are delighted to report solid revenue growth for the 11th consecutive quarter, despite the slowdown in government spending worldwide and continued softness in global economies”, said Dr. Radu Barsan, Chairman, President and CEO of RIO.

Dr. Georgios Margaritis, RIO’s Director of Quality and Reliability, commented: “The outgoing quality and field reliability of our products is of paramount importance to our customers as they often deploy their systems in harsh and difficult to access environments. We want them to not have to touch our laser once installed in the field. Therefore our team spares no efforts to ensure that every single unit is built to the exacting requirements of RIO’s quality management system and of the Telcordia GR-468 standards. Having accumulated thus far more than 4 million device hours with no field failures, we will continue to report on our products reliability performance going forward.”
