Accessibility Statement for CommScope

  • HTML
  • JavaScript

Limitations and alternatives

Despite our best efforts to ensure accessibility of our sites, there may be some limitations. Below is a description of known limitations, and potential solutions. Please contact us if you observe an issue not listed below.

Known limitations:

  1. Site may have a few missing "alt" tags for images. Some decorative images may be missing an alt tag. The lack of those alt tags does not impede any site functionality. Some images are pulled from an asset management system that did not require alt text, but those images are being replaced by our system that will add alt text to those images. We are actively adding alt tags to as many images as possible. We are also moving to an asset management system that requires alt tags for every image.
