Distributed Access Architectures impact the Core and Edge Network by changing the functionality of the Core and moving some functions
to the Edge, closer to the Aggregation Network where the connection between the edge and outside plant occurs, and the Access Network
where services are delivered to the customer. CommScope has arranged its DAA Services Suite to align with these three network segments.
In addition, CommScope offers services that cut across the entire network project.
