CommScope, a global leader in infrastructure solutions for communications networks, has resolved a dispute with Advanced Lightning Technology, Ltd. relating to CommScope’s stackable hanger patents that are utilized in CommScope’s SnapStak® cable hangers.
CommScope had alleged that Advanced Lightning Technology was selling stackable hangers that infringe CommScope’s patents, specifically U.S. Patent numbers 6,354,543 and 6,899,305. As part of the resolution, Advanced Lightning Technology has agreed to immediately discontinue sales of its infringing products.
“We are committed to only selling genuine, patented CommScope SnapStak cable hangers in the future,” said David Riley, chief executive officer of Advanced Lightning.
