Within 15 days, ODU can ship up to 15 rectangular modular connectors (ODU-MAC) or up to 150 metal circular connectors (ODU MINI-SNAP / ODU AMC) to its customers worldwide.

The service belies the fact that most industries are currently experiencing supply bottlenecks and shortages of raw materials.
