There is a good reason for this particular one.
I don't have anything against outsourcing. There is plenty of reasons to outsource, true. But there is one that is most important and IT IS NOT THE COST. I am not saying the cost is not important, I am just saying it is not the most important.
The most important reason is that you want to focus on your core product and not on everything else. If your core product that you sell to your customers are routers, if you are the CEO of the company, you probably do not want to oversee a division that produces accounting software or remote desktop software. If you need these things, you either buy them or outsource them.
You want to spend all your focus producing the best product for your customers, and this is routers. Not anything else that does not directly go into making better experience for your costumers.
It usually is or at least, in principle, should be cheaper. Because for some reason if somebody cares for the product, the total cost to produce the product at a given quality level will be lower.

Because from the looks of it, if I assume what you're saying is 100% true, the product is sales contracts for the routers and not the routers themselves.
