USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 85 granted patents across 29 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION).
The verdict
Accton holds 85 US patents across 29 technology areas, rank #4,176 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Accton Technology Corporation has been granted 85 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Accton Technology Corporation at rank #4,176 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 29 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Accton Technology Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Accton sits between Syncmold Enterprise Corp. (86 patents, rank #4,172) and Arthrocare Corporation (85 patents, rank #4,180) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 47.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 26 grants, compared with 59 in the 2015–2019 window, a -56% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Accton Technology Corporation's 12.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 29 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Accton Technology Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Accton's 85 grants land it in the top 19% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
