In depth · editorial + model · written 2026-07-13

Henan Shijia Photons is a STAR-listed Chinese maker of optical chips and components — PLC and AWG chips that split and route light, plus receiver parts that turn light back into an electrical signal. These sit inside the optical modules, or transceivers, that carry data between servers and switches — the plumbing that lets thousands of accelerators talk to each other inside an AI cluster.

Its hook is localization. As Chinese module makers build out 400G and 800G optics, they want domestic sources for the photonic chips inside them rather than depending on Western suppliers, and Shijia is positioned to capture that substitution. The model reads it as a photonic-component producer with modest centrality: a real beneficiary of the networking build-out and supply-chain onshoring, but a specialist part-maker, not a system owner.
