CCS
The CCS segment provides connectivity and network intelligence for indoor and outdoor network applications. Indoor network solutions are found in commercial buildings and in the network core, which includes data centers, central offices and cable television head ends. Its outdoor network solutions are found in access and edge networks and include coaxial cabling, fiber optic cable and connectivity solutions, including a portfolio of fiber optic connectors and fiber management systems. The Company integrates its structured cabling, connectors, in-building cellular solutions and network intelligence solutions to create physical layer solutions that enable voice, video and data communication and building automation. Its data center, central office and head end solutions include a portfolio of fiber optic connectors. It also offers fiber management systems, patch cords and panels, cabling systems and cable assemblies for use in offices and data centers. Products from its CCS segment are primarily sold through independent distributors or system integrators. It also sells to cable television system operators, broadband operators or service providers that deploy broadband networks.
The Company provides fiber optic and coaxial cable solutions that support the multichannel video, voice and data services provided by telecommunications operators and MSOs. It provides a portfolio of connectivity solutions, including fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) equipment and head end solutions for these customers. Its fiber optic connectivity solutions comprise hardened connector systems, fiber distribution hubs and management systems, couplers and splitters, plug and play multiport service terminals, hardened optical terminating enclosures, cable assemblies, splices and splice closures. These products are used in both local-area and wide-area networks and last-mile FTTH installations, including deployments of fiber-to-the-node (FTTN), fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP), and fiber-to-the-distribution point (FTTdP) to homes, businesses and cell sites. These networks use the capabilities of fiber to enable consumers access to content.
CMS
The CMS segment provides merchant radio frequency (RF) wireless network solutions, as well as metro cell, distributed antenna systems (DAS) and small cell solutions. Its macro cell site solutions can be found at wireless tower sites and on rooftops. Its metro cell solutions can be found on street poles and on other urban structures. Its DAS and small cell solutions allow wireless operators to improve spectral efficiency and enhance cellular coverage and capacity in challenging network conditions, such as commercial buildings, urban areas, stadiums and transportation systems.
The Company's solutions, marketed primarily under the Andrew brand, enable wireless operators to meet coverage and capacity requirements for networks. It focuses its physical-layer solutions on all aspects of the Radio Access Network (RAN) from the macro through the metro, to the indoor layer. Its solutions include products for every wireless protocol and allow wireless network operators to operate across various frequency bands and accelerate migration to the wireless technologies. It provides a portfolio of RF infrastructure products. Its macro cell site solutions include base station antennas, microwave antennas, hybrid fiber-feeder and power cables, coaxial cables, connectors and filters. It also provides a portfolio at the base of the tower, including cabinets, platforms, fiber backhaul connectivity hubs and power solutions.
The Company's metro cell solutions include RF delivery, equipment, housing and concealment. The outdoor systems include specialized antennas, filters/combiners, backhaul solutions, intra-system cabling and power distribution. Its small cell and DAS solutions comprise distributed antenna systems and distributed cell solutions. Products from its CMS segment are primarily sold to wireless operators, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) that sell equipment to wireless operators or other service providers that deploy elements of wireless networks at the direction of wireless operators.
