ARRS Arris International Plc - Ordinary Shares

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., June 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ARRIS TeleWire Supply (NASDAQ:ARRS) today announced that it has expanded its distribution relationship with Power Battery, enabling TeleWire to more efficiently distribute Power Battery products to MSOs throughout the United States. "Power Battery traditionally has maintained a strong embedded base with MSOs in the Northeast," said Tom Williams, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for ARRIS TeleWire Supply. "During the past year, we have worked with them to create logistic efficiencies that will enable us to more competitively satisfy nationwide demand for their products -- along with a comprehensive battery reclamation, tracking, and recycling program." Power Battery manufactures high performance gel-type VRLA (valve regulated lead acid) batteries for broadband network applications. Its patent-pending Advanced Gel technology combines the benefits of an AGM battery with those of traditional gel products. Advanced Gel technology improves oxygen recombination efficiency that increases water conservation to extend life, and it drastically reduces acid stratification to improve cycling capabilities by a factor of five times that of standard AGM batteries. The integration of the gel into the pores of the plates and separator materials allows for significant improvement in the thermal properties which enables wider temperature range operation, while saturation of the gel into the plates and separators facilitates acid contact between both, and enhances amp hour capacity and cell voltage consistency. The company manufactures three Advanced Gel models in its Broadband Series ranging from 75 to 110 AMP. It also manufactures a 136 AMP SuperMax Advanced Gel Battery that extends standby time by 30 percent longer than traditional gel batteries. Additionally, Advanced Gel has been designed into a front terminal 95 AH battery for reduced maintenance. All Power Battery Advanced Gel products carry a five-year warranty.
