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. For more information, visit

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.”
