Broadband Media Innovator Takes Spotlight at Industry Technology Event
SUWANEE, Ga. - ARRIS Group, Inc.(NASDAQ: ARRS) a global innovator in broadband media technology, extends a warm welcome to the Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers' (SCTE) Cable-Tec EXPO 2011, to be held in the ARRIS headquarters city of Atlanta, Georgia, November 15-17, 2011. As a hometown host, ARRIS will showcase how it can assist operators in achieving their business objectives and transition to converged IP services during multiple speaker presentations, sponsored events and product demonstrations in its booth (#873).
"The proliferation of connected devices and mobile screens provides cable operators with a vast array of options and challenges," said Stan Brovont, SVP, Marketing and Business Development at ARRIS.

Through our many technical paper presentations and our booth experiences, we will illustrate the options that operators now have available to provide the broadest subscriber experience possible."
Eleven company presentations will outline how various solutions can be strategically applied to operators' individual architectures as follows:
- CEO Bob Stanzione will participate on the opening general session on Industry Partnerships
