USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 137 granted patents across 16 technology areas, active 2018–2025. 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
NEW holds 137 US patents across 16 technology areas, rank #2,811 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
NEW H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. has been granted 137 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing NEW H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. at rank #2,811 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, NEW H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, NEW sits between Illuscio, Inc. (137 patents, rank #2,807) and Wuhan University (137 patents, rank #2,815) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.3/100 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 123 grants, compared with 14 in the 2015–2019 window, a +779% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. NEW H3C Technologies Co., Ltd.'s 12.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 16 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark NEW H3C Technologies Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
NEW's 137 grants land it in the top 33% 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.
