PR Newswire (US)
HICKORY, N.C., March 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CommScope, Inc.,
(NYSE:CTV), a world leader in infrastructure solutions for
communication networks, today announced that its cable and
connector system has been approved for WiMAX applications by a
major U.S. wireless carrier. WiMAX, or 4G as it is sometimes
called, is being considered for future wireless transmission
network expansions as new bandwidth-intensive wireless services
continue to be introduced. Over the last decade, the wireless
industry has increased its consumption of the bandwidth spectrum
due to increasing demand for video, voice and data. Frequency
ranges that originally started in at 960 MHz are now pushing 2.7
GHz, creating unprecedented technology challenges for large
diameter cable products. "We believe that we are the first supplier
to have our cable and connector system approved for WiMAX
applications by a major U.S. carrier. We are confident we can meet
and exceed the emerging WiMAX frequency requirements using our
proven broadband cable technology," said Senior Vice President
Larry Nelson, CommScope's Chief Technical Officer for Wireless
Engineering. "When originally introduced, our wireless cable
designs were already adapted for use in a broad range of frequency
spectrums. This minimized the need for cable replacements as
frequency demands expanded." With CommScope becoming qualified by a
major U.S. wireless carrier for use in WiMAX frequencies, the
company expects to expand its WiMAX presence within the U.S. as
well as Korea and Europe where it is already in use. As higher
frequency demands continue to stretch the limits on traditional
cable designs, CommScope continues to research and develop new
ideas to support future WiMAX compatibility for its wireless
products. For more information about this and other CommScope
