The company grew organically and through strategic acquisitions during the ensuing decades, specifically the 1980s and 1990s. It widened its reach beyond the United States, entering markets in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. A pivotal moment in its corporate history came in 1997 when it separated from General Instrument and took the leap to go public. Shortly after, the company achieved another significant milestone, surpassing $1 billion in yearly revenue by 2000.
In 2011, a notable development was the acquisition of Andrew Corporation, a major player in wireless network infrastructure. This move considerably broadened CommScope’s range of offerings. Today, the company stands as an international leader in communications network infrastructure, boasting a workforce of over 30,000 people across the globe. CommScope remains at the forefront of technological advances and focuses on innovative developments in 5G networks, WiFi 6, fiber optic solutions, small cellular technologies, and intelligent networking software.
