Golden Eye Technologies LLC

Golden Eye Technologies LLC is a non-practicing entity (NPE), also known as a patent assertion entity (PAE), focused on licensing and asserting an acquired patent portfolio. Formed in Texas in August 2020, the company operates under the management of Harfang IP Investment Corp, a patent monetization firm.

The company does not offer products or services but instead asserts patents related to 4G/5G cellular technologies, Wi-Fi Passpoint, Wi-Fi HaLow (IEEE 802.11ah), and location-based services in Wi-Fi environments. These patents were acquired from South Korean telecommunications company KT Corporation in 2020, involving the transfer of approximately 50 U.S. patents.

Golden Eye Technologies LLC's patent litigation posture is that of a plaintiff asserting its acquired portfolio. The company has one tracked plaintiff case, filed in the Eastern District of Texas, a venue frequently favored by patent plaintiffs. This case, filed in August 2025, is against Cisco Systems, Inc., asserting patents covering wireless local area network (LAN) services, including wireless access points and controllers.

In response to its assertion activities, Golden Eye Technologies LLC is also a defendant in one tracked case at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). This PTAB case, initiated by Unified Patents and Cisco Systems, Inc. in January 2026, challenges the validity of patents, including US9271243B2 and US9717037B2, which are among those asserted against Cisco. Unified Patents typically targets non-practicing entities with such challenges.
