TrendForce: Marvell's acquisition of Lumentum achieves optical-electrical integration, expected to reshape the optical communications industry landscape

Zhitong Finance APP has learned that TrendForce stated in a report that Marvell has officially announced it will acquire major optical communications company Lumentum. The boards of directors of both companies approved the transaction on November 2, but the deal still awaits approval from both companies' shareholders and regulatory authorities in various countries. TrendForce said that if the acquisition is completed, in addition to helping Marvell fill gaps in its optical business portfolio and jointly offering better next-generation optical interconnect technology services with Lumentum, the current situation in which Broadcom dominates the optical communications industry will also change.
