ADC Introduces LoopStar 810 CLE SONET Access System for Customer Premises; Compact, Low-Cost CLE Solution for Both TDM and Ether

ADC (NASDAQ:ADCTD)(www.adc.com) today announced its new
LoopStar(R) 810 Customer-Located Equipment (CLE) SONET access system,
the latest addition to its family of advanced, next-generation SONET
access solutions. LoopStar access systems enable service providers to
cost-effectively deploy and manage TDM and Ethernet services to
end-user customers from a single platform. The LoopStar 810 will be
featured in ADC's booth (No. 23018) at SUPERCOMM 2005, June 7-9 in
Chicago.
   The LoopStar 810 is designed specifically for CLE applications
where service providers can deliver Ethernet business services as well
as traditional DS1 and DS3 TDM-based services easily and economically.
The product's compact design allows for easy installation in customer
premises environments with limited space, and its integrated
connector-interface panel and wall-mount bracket for complete front
access to all cable connections offer multiple deployment options. The
LoopStar 810 also features centralized management control with the
LoopStar 800 EMS, an advanced, user-friendly Graphical User Interface
(GUI) Element Management System (EMS) for controlling and managing the
LoopStar access systems. An on-board, Web-Local Craft Terminal is also
provided for smaller distributed applications and craft access.
   "Service providers need cost-effective and easy-to-deploy
solutions that extend SONET network services to their end-user
customers," said Mike Pratt, president of the Wireline and Wireless
Business Units for ADC. "The LoopStar 810 offers unique flexibility
with rich feature functionality that will help them broaden their
services offerings and generate new revenue through its advanced
multi-service transport and networking capabilities."
   The LoopStar 810 system is the latest addition to ADC's

private networks. The portfolio also includes the LoopStar 800 SONET
