5: Commscope Solutions - Cabling Types.
CommScope is a leading manufacturer not only of twisted pair, fiber and coaxial cables, but of connectivity components that offer the highest levels of
performance. These are solutions that integrate cable, connectivity and craft. You can design and install networks from the desktop to the backbone and be
assured of highest network speeds and reliability. This course is designed to lead you through the process of installing the best possible network for your
needs, present and future. Keep in mind that when it comes to specifying the components, CommScope and its partners have the cable, connectivity and
the know-how to make your network communicate. Along with manufacturing all types of communication cable for both outside plant, indoor/outdoor and
premises environments, we can provide copper (twisted pair and coax), and fiber connectivity and passive components from the largest patch panels to the
smallest connector.

7: Connectivity That Meets and Exceeds Networking Standards.
The most comprehensive and authoritative standards for network cabling performance are the TIA-568 and ISO 11801 Cabling Standards, which dictate the
parameters for network cabling capacity, reliability and compatibility. While some manufacturers may treat these standards as goals to reach, CommScope
defines them as minimums to be exceeded. We offer a family of fiber and copper connectivity choices that provide end-to-end performance guarantees well
above established standards. Our network solutions are designed and engineered to work across entire networks, providing a complete telecommunications
infrastructure from fiber to copper, from outside to inside and from backbone to desktop. This system of cables, enclosures, panels, connectors and patch
cords allows you to assemble an entire network with verified and warranted performance, with all components supplied from a single source.

8: Warranty.
Having invested in a high-performing solution, you will want to know about protecting that investment. At CommScope, our Extended Product Warranties
and Applications Assurance are backed by extensive support, documentation and testing by our labs. More importantly, we are globally consistent meaning
that you receive the optimum warranty protection for your infrastructure solution, with the same level of coverage from one country or continent to the next.
