CommScope, a global leader in infrastructure solutions for
communications networks, has resolved a dispute with Advanced
Lightning Technology, Ltd. relating to CommScope’s stackable hanger
patents that are utilized in CommScope’s SnapStak® cable
hangers.
CommScope had alleged that Advanced Lightning Technology was
selling stackable hangers that infringe CommScope’s patents,
specifically U.S. Patent numbers 6,354,543 and 6,899,305. As part
of the resolution, Advanced Lightning Technology has agreed to
immediately discontinue sales of its infringing products.
“We regret the sales of the infringing products and are
committed to only selling genuine, patented CommScope SnapStak
cable hangers in the future,” said David Riley, chief executive
officer of Advanced Lightning Technology.
CommScope designs, manufactures, and sells telecommunications
solutions around the world. The company invests considerable
resources designing and patenting its innovative products with
improved features to provide superior value to customers. The
resolution of this dispute reinforces CommScope’s commitment to
protecting its investments and maintaining its differentiating
product features.
CommScope has asserted the same patents in a patent infringement
lawsuit previously. The parties reached a settlement, where the
infringing party acknowledged its infringement of both patents and
paid an undisclosed sum to the company. The settlement also
required that the party cease any further production of the
infringing products.
SnapStak is a registered trademark of CommScope, Inc.
