ADC Demonstrates "Micro Cellular Network" Solutions at CTIA Wireless 2008 in Las Vegas.

Innovative Portfolio Addresses Coverage and Capacity Challenges for Cost-Effective, High-Quality Delivery of New Wireless Applications and Services

MINNEAPOLIS -- ADC (NASDAQ: ADCT) (www.adc.com) today announced that its Network Solutions Business Unit will showcase its All IP-Radio Access Network (RAN) portfolio at next week's CTIA Wireless show in Las Vegas on April 1-3. The All IP-RAN product portfolio is the first comprehensive solution for the 'micro cellular network' challenge of providing strong and pervasive mobile wireless coverage in areas where macro network coverage won't reach--within residential and commercial buildings, in macro network gaps, and in remote locations. ADC will demonstrate the All IP-RAN portfolio in Booth 1041 at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

"New applications and rising bandwidth demands are putting a lot of pressure on mobile operators to extend the coverage and capacity of their networks - reaching into homes, offices and outdoor hotspots," said Peter Jarich, research director for Current Analysis. "To push coverage and capacity into these places where macro networks simply don't reach, a complete portfolio of DAS products, picocells, remote radio heads and low-capacity outdoor products is critical, putting ADC and its IP-RAN portfolio in a strong position to deliver."

"Mobile wireless services are at a major inflection point," said Hilton Nicholson, president of the Network Solutions Business Unit for ADC. "Carriers have spent tens of billions of dollars to build up macro networks for voice coverage, but new high-speed data services and richer applications have now created a huge demand for 'micro cellular network' coverage and capacity, which includes in-building coverage, macro network gap coverage, and remote location coverage. ADC's All IP-RAN portfolio is the only one in the industry focused on addressing the micro network challenge."

As part of its demonstration, ADC will introduce its new InterReach([R]) Office solution to the North American market. InterReach Office is the only enterprise mobility solution that delivers wireless coverage and capacity along with IP PBX integration.

ADC's ALL IP-RAN Portfolio

ADC's wireless portfolio includes a complete line of infrastructure solutions. As part of its IP-RAN Portfolio of outdoor solutions, ADC offers:

* FlexWave[TM] Base Station System (BSS) is a complete base station system providing converged in-building and outdoor GSM, GPRS and EDGE coverage and capacity. It includes the nanoBTS[TM], the microBTS, a Base Station Controller (BSC), as well as integrated management.

* UltraWAVE is a complete GSM network solution consisting of softswitch MSC, IP-based RAN and value-added services. UltraWAVE solutions are compact and scalable, optimized for micro-cellular and specialized mobile applications such as rural coverage, maritime, private networks, military and government.

* FlexWave Universal Radio Head (URH) extends wireless coverage from existing cell sites to hard-to-reach areas and improves wireless capacity by distributing coverage from centralized radio suites. The URH adds flexibility and saves costs by providing multi-band coverage that supports both RF and baseband protocols.

Distributed URH solutions can be used for Near-Building applications that provide wireless coverage and capacity for surrounding outdoor public spaces from outdoor placements. FlexWave microBTS products also can be used for Near-Building applications.

* FlexWave WMX WiMAX delivers services to a wide range of subscribers - from large enterprises and public-sector organizations to multi-tenant buildings and residences - using a single, standards-based platform.

* FlexWave MMW is a millimeter wave transport solution that creates a 1.25GbE wireless Ethernet data pipeline over distances up to 3 miles. FlexWave MMW duplicates the performance, reliability and security of fiber, but without the high deployment costs associated with outdoor fiber installation.

The IP RAN portfolio also includes the InterReach line of in-building coverage solutions, recently acquired through the acquisition of LGC Wireless.

* InterReach Unison([R]) and InterReach Fusion([R]) are the leading active DAS systems on the market, with more than 11,000 worldwide deployments by carriers, local governments, and enterprises.

* InterReach Office is an innovative wireless enterprise solution that enables a high-quality GSM mobile environment with unrivaled voice quality. It also serves as the foundation for wireless PBX services as well as fixed-mobile convergence (FMC). The InterReach Office GSM base station is the foundation of the InterReach Office suite. The solution is packaged in a compact, rack-mountable, server-like enclosure that is designed to be easily installed and configured by corporate IT personnel.

Other wireless portfolio solutions featured at the Mobile World Congress include:

* The LoopStar[R] 700 Wireless Backhaul product family, an Ethernet access and transport portfolio optimized for converged packet access at the edge over any type of available facility.

* ClearGain[R] Cell-Site Amplifiers - tower-mounted and ground-mounted amplifiers that expand cell-site coverage areas and improve quality of service (QoS).
