August 4, 2011 HICKORY, N.C.

CommScope, Inc., a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, is making it easier for potential customers around the world to find independent companies that provide implementation services and IT infrastructure solutions for business enterprises based on CommScope technologies.

CommScope has launched an enhanced BusinessPartner Locator on the company’s website, providing visitors a detailed list of companies worldwide offering CommScope solutions and services. This new web tool assures potential customers that CommScope infrastructure support options are available to them from the nearly 1,500 BusinessPartners around the world.

“Our BusinessPartner Locator is integral to the success of our partner program,” said Stephen Kowal, vice president, Global Channel Sales, CommScope. “It enables us to raise their profile and promote them while enabling our customers to find the right expertise for their projects anywhere in the world. We believe this new web tool shows the power of the solutions CommScope has built to support our partners and programs – something that differentiates us from the rest of the market.”

The BusinessPartner Locator includes all of CommScope’s BusinessPartners offering services in SYSTIMAX®, Uniprise®, iPatch® and its Wired for Wireless™ and In-building Wireless solutions, while also displaying their training and certifications. Through the program and the Solution BusinessPartner accreditation, both launched in August 2010, CommScope connects business enterprise customers to the experienced, trained and qualified companies they need to evolve their network infrastructures with reliable, high-performance and intelligent technologies.

Through the BusinessPartner accreditation, CommScope has put into action a program that provides universal consistency in the requirements and rewards for all BusinessPartners around the world. The program also establishes a process for existing BusinessPartners to evolve and expand their capabilities by supporting cutting-edge wired and wireless infrastructure solutions, as well as connecting them with new organizations that already support CommScope’s rapidly evolving solution portfolio.

“By including the BusinessPartner Locator in our company’s corporate presentation package, it assures our end-user clients and prospects of our level of certifications and training,” said Lyman Smith, president, Kastle Technologies, a BusinessPartner since 2005 that achieved Elite status, the highest level a BusinessPartner can receive. “The BusinessPartner locator is a vital resource that enables us to search for highly qualified CommScope installers as well as introduces us to CommScope customers and BusinessPartners that need our installation support.”
