ADC (NASDAQ: ADCT)(www.adc.com), a leading supplier of infrastructure solutions for fiber deployments, announced today that Reservation Telephone Cooperative (RTC), a leading provider of broadband services to rural communities in central North Dakota, is using ADC's fiber connectivity and management solutions to build its FTTP network.

RTC serves 19 communities, via 20 exchanges and nearly 9,000 access lines. The FTTP project, which was launched in 2007 and is expected to be completed in about 10 years, will bring broadband services to homes, businesses, schools and libraries located on and near the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation. The project also includes tribal government facilities which provide child support, education assistance, employment assistance, healthcare and public safety services on the Reservation.

?The need for bandwidth by our customers is increasing every year and fiber is the only way we'll be able to keep up with the demand,? said Brooks Goodall, operations manager for RTC. ?We selected ADC equipment because of its quality and the company's high level of customer support.? ADC Professional Services (APS) is deploying the connectivity solutions in RTC's central office in New Town, N.D. and is currently about half-way through the project.

ADC offers complete, end-to-end network infrastructure solutions for FTTX networks that save time and money, and help improve customer satisfaction. Products currently being deployed by RTC include ADC's LSX 288 fiber panels; plug-and-play splitter chassis; fiber entrance cabinets; OMX fiber frames; fiber guide systems; FDH3000 OSP cabinets; and RealFlex bend insensitive ONT cables. All of these products and others in ADC's portfolio are accepted by the USDA Rural Development Telecommunications program, allowing them to be used in the expansion of broadband services to underserved and rural communities.

Although the RTC FTTP network is only partially complete, the ADC fiber-connectivity solutions already are proving to be a good fit. ?The equipment works well and the LSX panel with the built-in splitters is so easy to install and use,? said Goodall. "ADC understands our unique deployment challenges and its equipment is well suited to our needs.?

?ADC is pleased to be selected by Reservation Telephone Cooperative for its extensive fiber network build out that supports advanced broadband services initiatives for its subscribers,? said Jaxon Lang, vice president of Global Connectivity Solutions - Americas for ADC. ?As business and residential consumers become more dependent on bandwidth-intensive, multi-service communications for a wide range of daily activities, ADC provides the network infrastructure that can cost-effectively scale to meet these demands while reducing operational expense. We are proud to support RTC in implementing its broadband vision.?
