August 2007 heralded three major milestones for CZ Electronics Manufacturing:
1. The company installed and commissioned its fourth surface mount technology assembly line. This has increased component placement capacity to 125 000 components per hour.
2. Four new products were launched at the Telecoms World Africa conference and exhibition:
* The SOR18 wireless high speed rural access system to provide enhanced communications to rural communities, both locally and in the rest of Africa.
* The IAP (Internet access point) is designed to provide telephone companies and ISPs with another option to supply Internet access to their customers.
* LiMAX is aimed at providing high-speed data communications for construction sites, open cast mines, security complexes and temporary data links such as remote polling stations.
* The xDSL SmartJack to provide telephone companies with much needed protection for both power and data at customer premises installations.
