His bio says March and Mitel -- Alcatel is actually a French based company that has been around for a long time -- they were among the first, along with Siecor (Superior Cable originally, now a part of Siemens) to contract to run fiber optic cable both underground and undersea.
Alcatel has US offices in North Carolina for their production facilities here, and other offices elsewhere in N America for sales and administrative capacities.
Siecor, Alcatel and Commscope -- maker of all those Jerrold cable tv boxes during the 80s and early 90s -- all have production facilities within a few miles of each other in N Carolina actually.
