1 case as defendant.
Yiwu Caitong Electric Co Ltd is a private manufacturing company based in Yiwu City, Zhejiang, China. Publicly available information does not specify a founding year, employee count, or revenue. The company is also known as Yiwu Caitong Trading Company.
The company operates in the optical networking business. It manufactures and supplies components for optical fiber networks, with its main products listed as Optical Network Units (ONU) and Optical Line Terminals (OLT). ONUs are devices located at the user's premises to terminate the optical fiber line, while OLTs are endpoint hardware devices in a passive optical network.
Yiwu Caitong Electric's patent litigation history consists of a single case in which it is a defendant, with no record of it acting as a plaintiff. This posture is consistent with that of an operating company defending itself against patent assertions. The company is not a frequent litigant, and its only tracked case is in the Illinois Northern District Court, not a venue commonly associated with high-volume patent assertion campaigns.
The only tracked lawsuit involving the company is Conair LLC v. Tehrani Corp et al., filed on April 22, 2026, where Yiwu Caitong Electric Co Ltd is named as a defendant. Details of the specific patent or products at issue in this case are not available.
