Hickory, NC ? March 19, 2007 -- CommScope, Inc. (NYSE: CTV), a world leader in infrastructure solutions for communication networks, today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire substantially all of the assets of Signal Vision, Inc., a leading supplier of broadband radio frequency subscriber products.  Signal Vision’s product lines include digital passives, indoor amplifiers and addressable taps.  Signal Vision had revenues of less than $30 million in 2006.
