MINNEAPOLIS -- ADC (NASDAQ:ADCT) (www.adc.com) announced today that it is expanding its Professional Architects, Consultants and Engineers (PACE) Program to include information and support for its OmniReach[TM] network infrastructure solutions for fiber-to-the-x (FTTX) applications. The PACE Program is designed to inform, support and nurture relationships with consultants and designers who serve current and potential ADC enterprise and service provider customers.

"By focusing on ADC's broader portfolio, the PACE Program will be able to better meet the needs of industry professionals," said David Yanish, program manager at ADC. "Expanding the scope of the program will help accomplish our goal of keeping these professionals, and their key constituents, abreast of cutting-edge ADC technology in the markets they serve."

By providing information on solutions like OmniReach, the PACE Program makes it easy for consultants to work with and recommend ADC, while at the same time demonstrating the company's market awareness as a technology leader and innovator.
