Why AMC

Why choose us

AMC Optics is an industry leading manufacturer of 100% compatible optical transceivers and peripherals. Since 2003, AMC Optics has built a reputation based on our dedication to honesty, quality, integrity, and service. It is through this dedication that AMC Optics has grown into the premier manufacturer that so many Fortune 500 companies, Data Centers, Integrators and their engineers have come to trust in their networks. With millions of optical transceivers and direct attach cables installed in thousands of environments, AMC Optics is the top choice of network engineers across the planet.

What’s the difference

There are a number of compatible optical transceiver suppliers to choose from in the market. AMC is a BOM (Bill of Materials) manufacturer with ‘manufacturer of record’ status. We do not source products from multiple manufacturers and assemblers to find the lowest cost products at any given time like most suppliers. We also do not source tier 2 and reworked components to cut costs like many manufacturers. AMC Optics uses a stringent BOM (Bill of Materials) and strict manufacturing and programming guidelines to ensure that our clients get the exact same product with the exact same reliability each and every time. With many “manufacturers” and/or brokers, you can order a certain product multiple times and get a number of different builds and components. For high end networks and critical systems data centers, this difference is paramount. The average cost per minute of unplanned downtime is up to $7900.00.
This is why AMC is the most trusted manufacturer line in the top data centers and networks.

Each AMC transceiver is specifically coded to mirror the form and function of the OEM original transceiver. We use a stringent double testing method that couples a full data-pass test with 100% application specific test methods. Through these custom processes, AMC Optics has achieved a defective product rate well lower than the industry standard and that of the major OEMs at less than .004%. AMC Optics strives to get it right, and get it right the first time, every time.

In addition to an industry leading lifetime warranty, our products will not, in any way, impact any existing OEM warranty. Federal law protects consumers under the Sherman Antitrust Act. These laws prevent OEM manufacturers from having “tie-in-sales” provisions that attempt to intimidate customer into purchasing supporting products from the manufacturer at much higher prices.

We program for over 80 OEM systems in house, including:
