OEMs reduce their costs by using ADC’s portfolio of existing technology components, which typically do not require qualification or custom tooling. By relying on ADC’s design, integration, testing, documentation, sourcing and delivery of passive components, OEMs make more cost-effective use of their own resources and accelerate time to market by using designs that are already approved and third-party tested. Further, these product families help OEMs meet carrier demands by incorporating:

• Craft-friendly, plug-and-play connectivity solutions designed to improve network operating costs by reducing network installation and service turn-up times. ADC has a long track record of solving specific carrier problems with solutions that capture superior application fitness and the highest ease of use.
  
  
• Certified, reliable products designed to the highest industry standards to reduce network maintenance costs. ADC products are thoroughly tested throughout the manufacturing process and certified by organizations such as Underwriters Laboratories, Telcordia Technologies, Curtis-Straus, and Met Laboratories. Carriers look to these organizations to set quality, reliability and compatibility standards
  
  
• TL9000-certification across 17 product categories – the largest number of registrations of any company. ADC is also a registered ISO 9000 manufacturer. Documented and followed procedures in design and development, prototype, and production helps ensure the delivery of high-quality products time after time

In short, the expertise and resources inherent in ADC solutions effectively remove the expensive and time-consuming burden on OEMs of having to design the passive component solution, obtain standards approval, source the various components and win service-provider acceptance.
