ADC Provides Scalable Cellular Coverage for Major Hines Office Building in Chicago

* Real estate leader offers wireless voice and data service as key amenity
* InterReach Fusion System provides multi-operator in-building cellular coverage
at 300 North LaSalle in Chicago
* System scales easily to support additional tenants as needed

MINNEAPOLIS--(Business Wire)--
ADC (NASDAQ: ADCT) (www.adc.com) today announced that its InterReach Fusion®
in-building distributed antenna system (DAS) has been deployed to deliver
wireless coverage and capacity inside 300 North LaSalle, one of Chicago`s
premier office properties. The property is owned and managed by Hines, one of
the world`s largest real estate organizations.

300 North LaSalle is a 1.3 million square-foot, 57-story office tower situated
along the Chicago River. During the building`s construction, Hines management
planned to provide an in-building cellular backbone to which tenants could
access for mobile service if they chose. The company`s lease agreement with an
international law firm specified that such a system be available, and that all
common areas of the building have reliable mobile voice and data service.

"We chose ADC`s InterReach Fusion system because the company has a very strong
reputation for providing systems in large commercial buildings like ours," said
Aaron Bowman, construction manager at Hines. "The Fusion system has very high
performance with built-in multi-operator coverage support, and it can easily
scale to deliver service to new tenants as we continue to lease space in the
building over time."

The initial deployment at 300 North LaSalle provided coverage for the building`s
common areas, including a 3-level underground garage, the lobby, a fitness
center, and a conference center, and the aforementioned law firm`s offices on 28
floors. ADC deployed 11 InterReach Fusion Main Hubs in the building`s network
operations center, added fiber cabling up the building`s utility riser,
installed 34 Fusion Expansion Hubs in wiring closets on various floors, and
deployed 219 remote antenna units (RAUs) to cover the required areas. The fiber
and thin CATV infrastructure is well suited for this new property and minimizes
cost as it`s easy to pull and connect.

As new tenants opt for their own coverage in the future, they can access the DAS
by simply adding Expansion Hubs and RAUs in their own spaces for a modest,
incremental cost. Distributing the RAUs as close to the tenants as possible is
essential to deliver data speeds required for highly reliable 3G and 4G
services. Since the building opened, additional tenants such as a major
consulting firm, a private equity firm, and another law firm have also opted for
mobile service in their offices.

Currently T-Mobile and AT&T service is available through the system, with
Verizon soon to deploy a base station as well.

"High performance, multi-carrier capabilities, and easy scalability are all key
features that set our Fusion systems apart from others, and we have
cost-effectively covered facilities ranging up to many millions of square feet
in size," said John Spindler, vice president of product management for ADC. "We
are proud that one of the world`s leading commercial property development and
management companies has selected us for this prestigious building in Chicago."
