HICKORY, N.C., Sept. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CommScope, Inc. (NYSE: CTV), a leader in the design and manufacture of high-performance broadband communication cables, today introduced the first comprehensive Enterprise Design Guide to the industry. This guide offers a one-source solution for virtually all the cabling needs of an enterprise system that transmits data, video, voice, and other selected applications.
