SOLiD Responds to CommScope’s Patent Infringement Suits

PLANO, Texas — May 26, 2020 — SOLiD, the leader in cellular in-building and public safety infrastructure, intends to vigorously defend itself against the lawsuits filed by CommScope on May 18, 2020.

SOLiD is a leading innovator, and has invested tens of millions of dollars in independently developing its innovative technology, including the Genesis DAS accused by CommScope.  While others were talking about deploying 5G solutions, SOLiD was already deploying 5G solutions in South Korea where SOLiD has been delivering the world’s first commercially deployed 5G repeater and DAS since 2018.

SOLiD respects valid intellectual property rights of third parties.  It will seek sensible solutions where necessary, and defend itself vigorously in courts as necessary as it has done successfully in the past in a patent lawsuit brought by another global company.  SOLiD is disappointed that CommScope has chosen to file these lawsuits, and believes that CommScope’s actions are harmful to the industry as a whole and to both companies’ customers.

SOLiD notes that while CommScope’s complaints and press release tout CommScope’s supposed success in litigating its patents against another, different company, the other company’s products are different from SOLiD’s Genesis DAS and the case is being appealed by CommScope itself.

SOLiD looks forward to a resolution of these matters, and to the extent necessary, is confident it will prevail against CommScope’s allegations in the US and UK courts.
