CommScope, a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, has agreed to acquire Cable Exchange, a privately held, quick-turn supplier of fiber optic and copper assemblies for data, voice and video communications.
Cable Exchange, headquartered in Santa Ana, Calif., manufactures a variety of fiber optic and copper cables, trunks and related products used in high-capacity data centers and other business enterprise applications.
This highly complementary acquisition will deepen CommScope’s capabilities in supporting the growing market for high-capacity, multi-tenant data centers and hyperscale data centers operated by the world’s largest technology and retail companies.
As more user-driven information and commerce flows through networks, operators are quickly deploying larger and more complex data centers to support growth in traffic and transactions, said CommScope.
Eddie Edwards, President & CEO, CommScope

Joey Hynes, President Cable Exchange
We look forward to building upon our teams’ capabilities to serve the growing data center market.”The acquisition is expected to be completed within the next 60 days, subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.
