Dr. Tony Moretti - Vice President of Engineering
Dr. Moretti has over 30 years of experience in engineering management. Dr. Moretti started Molex Inc.’s business unit for high-speed optical transceivers. He led this business unit, first as director, and then as vice president until its sale to Emcore Corp. His group at Molex commercialized gigabit/s speed and higher optical transceivers including 1×9’s, GBIC’s, and parallel optic modules. In late 2003, Emcore purchased the Molex development team for the LX4 10Gb/s transceiver module, which Emcore successfully commercialized. At Emcore, Dr. Moretti was responsible for manufacturing the LX4 transceivers and for development of new 10Gb/s and high speed products. Dr. Moretti received his B.S. degree in Physics from Iowa State University. He received his M.S. degree and Ph.D. in Physics from Purdue University.
