September 16, 2010 HICKORY, N.C.

CommScope, Inc., a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, today introduced its complete line of Uniprise® Ready™ fiber products for high-bandwidth critical network applications. Ready internal sliding shelves and locking wall mounts combine value, simplicity and performance reliability to deliver connectivity solutions with multimode and single-mode fiber support for a variety of indoor and outdoor environments.

A turn-key, standards-compliant design, minimizing floor space and decreasing deployment time are critical to achieving cost efficiencies. The Uniprise Ready shelf line can easily address these components in the physical layer network infrastructure for data centers, intelligent buildings, and in government and education segments. With Uniprise Ready fiber solutions, installers can connect components more quickly while reducing material waste and installation costs. Additionally, the Ready™ portfolio’s high-density 1U, 2U and 4U fiber shelves and 2-, 4- and 8-panel wall mounts save significant floor and wall space.

“Our Uniprise Ready fiber shelves and wall mounts are ready to meet our customers’ fiber solution needs in updating telecommunications closets in government and education facilities, conserving floor space in data centers or increasing network performance and reliability in intelligent buildings–with high-value performance,” said Kevin Mistele, director, Fiber Optic Solutions and International Product Line Management, CommScope Enterprise Solutions. “With support for pre-terminated multi-fiber push-on (MPO), splicing and field termination functionality as well as rapid deployment, the Uniprise® portfolio provides network managers in a variety of environments around the world, including collocation and hosted data center providers, with one of the easiest fiber solutions available for high-bandwidth application requirements.”

Both Ready shelves and wall mounts share a common panel-style design and footprint with all Ready fiber connector panels and modules enabling field termination, field splicing and factory termination in a single unit. This modular design supports network evolution by delivering a future-ready fiber platform that is readily customizable and easily updatable to accommodate customer needs.
