CommScope stands behind our Uniprise
Solutions with a 20-year warranty for both
performance and reliability. The warranty
guarantees that all Uniprise Solutions
products are free from material and
workmanship defects, and that a properly
designed, installed, tested and registered
structured cabling system will support any
application that is designed to communicate
via media specified by ANSI/TIA 568-C
series standards. This warranty applies to
Uniprise Solutions installed in Structured
Cabling Systems, which have been
installed and maintained by a Uniprise
Certified Installer.
CommScope offers the Certified Installer
Program to support this warranty. The

Multimode Fiber Solutions
Uniprise LazrSPEED® Solution
The four Uniprise Multimode Fiber
Solutions allow for a cost-effective
deployment of enterprise LAN network
infrastructures. Whether your network
calls for 10 Megabit or 10 Gigabit,
our fiber optic solutions meet or
exceed industry standards.
Support transmission using 10G 850 nm
VCSEL technology to distances of 150
meters, 300 meters and 550
meters, respectively.
* • Guaranteed distances assume a
maximum combined connector/splice
loss of 1.5 dB and cable attenuation of
3.5 dB/km for 62.5 micron and 3.0
dB/km for 50 micron.
CommScope takes a flexible approach with
our Uniprise Fiber Solutions. We guarantee
channel distances based on the amount of
combined connector and splice loss*,
instead of industry standard lengths. This
allows for flexibility in design and choice of
our ST, SC or LC connectors, all of which
have excellent performance characteristics.
• All distances include patch cord lengths.
dditional connector/splice loss can be
•A
accommodated with shorter distances.
•W
e can support longer distances with
less combined connector and
splice loss.
