ADC's systems and solutions enable local access and high-speed transmission of communications services from service providers to consumers and businesses over fiber-optic, copper, coaxial and wireless media.

Telephone companies, cable television operators, wireless service providers and other communications service providers are building the infrastructure required to offer high-speed Internet access, data, video, telephony and other interactive multimedia services to residential and business customers. Broader network bandwidths are required for these services and ADC's development efforts and product offerings are focused on "unlocking the capacity of the local loop" by eliminating bottlenecks and increasing the speed and efficiency of the network. The local loop is the last mile of the communications network from the local service providers' offices through the network equipment that connects to the end user's residence or business.

ADC's mission is to extend its leadership as a global supplier of systems and solutions that enable communications service providers to serve their customers with high-bandwidth connections offering faster, cost-effective and integrated voice, video and Internet/data services in the last mile of the communications network.
