JDSU, a worldwide leading provider of broadband test & measurement solutions and optical products for communications, commercial and consumer markets, employs a wide array of scientific, engineering, and manufacturing talent. Providing innovative solutions for industrial, commercial and consumer applications, JDSU offers professional challenge and development for exceptional individuals who thrive on change and will flourish in a diverse, progressive work environment. Our History: JDS Uniphase, a world leader in optical technology, was formed in 1999 with the merger of JDS Fitel (known for its passive optical components) and Uniphase Corporation (known for its active components and lasers). The company grew rapidly to meet the high market demand for fiber optic technology, leading the fiber optics component industry by offering the broadest portfolio of products and achieving revenues at the height of the telecommunications boom of over $1B per quarter. Although its innovative technology provided solutions in laser, optics and display, decorative, and brand authentication markets, the JDS Uniphase brand became best known for fiber optic communications components. JDS Uniphase has maintained its leadership position through extreme market transition periods by refocusing its strategic priorities, reinventing processes and portfolios, and reaffirming its basic values. While its roots are clear, the Company has grown beyond the associations of JDS and of Uniphase. Today, the Company is more diversified in both the products it offers and the customers it serves. Its commitment to technology leadership has led to innovation and investment in its laser offerings for biotech, semiconductor, and materials processing markets; its optics and display solutions for a variety of commercial and government/defense/aero markets; and its brand authentication and decorative solutions for consumer markets. With the recent acquisition of Acterna, the combined entity becomes a world leader in broadband test & measurement and optical technology. To better communicate its corporate identity in a manner that is consistent with its values and business focus, the Company has introduced a new logo and tag-line. First, the company identity will be changed from "JDS Uniphase" to "JDSU" in order to provide simplified consistency in the way we present ourselves to the market. "JDSU" is consistent with our Web site URL, our NASDAQ ticker symbol, and our email address. The legal entity name will remain "JDS Uniphase Corporation". Second, the graphical element of the logo will be updated to provide a more modern look while leveraging the equity associated with our logo over the years. Finally, a new tag-line, "Enabling Broadband & Optical Innovation", clearly communicates our commitment to enabling our customers' innovation in a set of multi-billion dollar markets including optical communications, broadband and optical test & measurement, and optical commercial and consumer applications.
