CommScope to Acquire Arris for $7.4B, Creating Cable Industry Heavyweight Poised for the FutureNovember 28, 2018US telecommunications equipment maker CommScope will acquire Arris, in a $7.4B deal valued at $5.69 billion, with the difference comprised of CommScope’s assumption of Arris’s debt. As part of the deal, the Carlyle Group will make a $1M equity investment in CommScope for an approximate 16% stake in the new company. CommScope’s CEO Eddie Edwards has claimed the two companies’ product lines are complementary, and that the combined company will “enable end-to-end wired and wireless communications infrastructure solutions that neither company could otherwise achieve on its own.” The deal is expected to close in the first half of 2019.Subscribers Only

MHL Shows Potential for Mobile HD ConnectionsSeptember 08, 2011
Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) is one of the newer high-definition technologies that is linking consumer devices today. Originally started by Silicon Image in Janurary 2008, MHL became a consortium in Spring 2010, primarily backed by Nokia, Samsung, Silicon Image, Sony and Toshiba. Currently boasting over 60 adopters, up from approximately 10 at the beginning of 2011, it is becoming increasingly apparent that the MHL interface has very strong growth potential, owing to the dominant position HDMI has established in HD-capable CE devices and the rapid adoption of HD-video applications in mobile CE devices such as smartphones and now tablet PCs.

LED Backlighting Drives Double-Digit Growth for DTV Semiconductors in 2011February 22, 2011Driven by the vibrant light-emitting diode (LED) backlighting segment, the global digital TV (DTV) semiconductor market is expected to expand by a robust 16.5 percent in 2011, according to new IHS iSuppli research.
Revenue in 2011 for DTV semiconductors is projected to reach $15.5 billion, up from $13.3 billion in 2010. Without the high-performing market for LED backlights used in liquid-crystal display (LCD) televisions, growth of the overall DTV semiconductor space in 2011 would amount to just 4.1 percent.
Revenue will continue to rise during the next few years, hitting $19.0 billion in 2014. -
Wireless Links for Video Consumer Electronics Devices Set to BoomJune 01, 2010The Consumer Electronics (CE) industry is entering a new era of ubiquitous connectivity, spurring a boom in shipments of video-oriented CE devices equipped with high-bandwidth wireless video interface solutions, according to iSuppli Corp.
iSuppli expects the market for video-enabled CE devices with high-bandwidth wireless video interfaces to grow to more than 85.2 million units by 2014, up from 606,000 units in 2009. By 2014, more than 53 million of these devices will be wireless-video-enabled digital TVs and consumer-oriented netbooks/laptops.
