CommScope has received a special public service award from CableFAX magazine in recognition of the company’s efforts in assisting customers impacted by the tornados that struck several areas of the United States earlier this year. CableFAX announced the award in its July issue, which also listed the other 2011 Top Ops Award winners. “On behalf of every employee at CommScope, I’d like to thank CableFAX for this honor,” said Eddie Edwards, president and chief executive officer, CommScope. “We believe that corporate responsibility means taking actions that have a positive impact on our people, our community and our business. We are extremely humbled that the magazine would bestow this accolade upon us as we strive for strong corporate governance and good citizenship.” CableFAX honored CommScope for its quick response in shipping fiber optic and co-axial cable, as well as humanitarian aid, to Cable One in Joplin, MO following a major tornado that devastated the entire town in May. CommScope was able to deliver supplies and aid within 48 hours to enable Cable One to begin restoring communications. As part of CommScope’s deliveries, any available space remaining on the trucks was filled with humanitarian aid such as water coolers, provisions, generators and blankets for those in the hardest-hit areas. In addition to assisting Cable One in Joplin, the Cable Transport teams were also dispatched to assist Charter Communications after tornados damaged areas of Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee in April.
