At Catawba, NC Facility, Service Providers Can Learn Directly from CommScope Experts using a Real-World Network

CommScope (NASDAQ: COMM), a global leader in network connectivity, today announced the opening of the CommScope Fiber Architecture Solutions Technology (FAST) Track, a real-world network environment where service providers can experience live fiber architectures in action. The facility, located in Catawba, NC, is a complete, working FTTH network that doubles as a training ground and innovation hub. Visitors can work directly with CommScope experts to gain practical insights into installation techniques, product interoperability and network optimization.

“CommScope’s FAST Track facility represents the next step in helping service providers efficiently build and expand broadband networks,” said Michelle Hogan, VP Broadband NAR, CommScope. “The outdoor innovation and testing lab allows us to collaborate with customers in real-world conditions where we can help service providers and contractors shorten learning curves, accelerate design validation and test deployment strategies—ultimately reducing field time and improving rollout efficiency.”

“What an incredible visit to CommScope’s new FAST Track facility and manufacturing plant,” noted Danielle Marlow, Product Line Manager, Netceed. “Seeing real-world network deployments up close brought broadband innovations to life—showing how every connection we build makes a difference for our customers. Experiences like this sharpen our perspective as we help service providers design and deliver the networks of tomorrow.”

While the facility started hosting previews for customers in October, a ribbon cutting ceremony will be held at the facility today to officially mark its opening and to welcome in partners. As service providers work to deliver fiber broadband to everyone, CommScope’s FAST Track plays a pivotal role in translating technology into tangible outcomes. The facility is available immediately for providers who want to book a tour.
