Mobile Switch Centers (MSCs) are vital for any consumer with a mobile device. The site typically consists of a large tower where wireless operators place antennas to supply services to mobile devices within the surrounding areas. The building at the bottom of those cell towers is the foundation needed to support the increasing demand by mobile users. The active electronics and passive optical hardware transmitting and receiving signals to the cell tower and mobile users are located within that building. Our fiber optic hardware, which includes frames, housings, and cassettes, and cable assembly solutions are transforming to help you support your subscribers wherever they live with faster and improved performance.
Core of Every Network
