BKtel was able to win Kiyoshi Takeichi for the position of the CEO. Since more than 15 years he is involved in marketing and sales within the CATV market, and has already for several years represented BKtel. He very successfully promoted the BKtel CATV external modulated transmitters gaining in a short time the highest market share of this equipment in Japan.

Based on BKtel’s optical transmission equipment and optical network systems as the core products as well as collaboration with other manufacturers, BKtel Pacific Rim will be able to offer unique and attractive solutions to the Japanese market. Together with a highly motivated team Takeichi can provide his customers the best technical support.

Aim of the new company is not only to build up BKtel’s position in Japan but also to expand to surrounding Asia and the Pacific area.
