The Johor facility, which moved into mass production during the first quarter of 2026, currently operates eight surface-mount technology lines to address rising global demand for AI infrastructure and high-performance computing. The plant specializes in high-speed optical transceivers, including 800G, 1.6T, and 3.2T variants, alongside Silicon Photonics and Co-Packaged Optics.
This expansion is central to FICG's "Johor–Singapore Twinning Strategy." Under this model, the Johor site manages engineering execution and volume manufacturing, while a planned center in Singapore will focus on global supply chain management and R&D. Chairman Leo Chien described the move as a shift toward integrated regional competitiveness, aiming to leverage Singapore’s international connectivity alongside Malaysia’s manufacturing capacity. The company expects its combined operations across the two locations to eventually support a workforce exceeding 1,000 employees, supported by partnerships with JTC Corporation and UOB to facilitate regional growth.
