1997 – 2011
Initially, in 1997, the CommScope logo consisted of the brand name and an emblem to the left of it. The wordmark was written in thick black block letters, the graphics of which looked very much like the commercial font Grenadine MVD Black. The emblem was composed of an ellipse, in the lower right part of which there was a white circle, reaching to the edge of the ellipse and splitting its border. In its upper left part, the circle had a white tail that created the illusion of motion of a comet. The ellipse emblem was made in ocean blue colour.
2011 – 2018
Later, in 2011 the logo was changed to a more concise one. It had just the brand name written in block letters in a thin and spacious font very close to the graphics of the commercial font Dystopian Regular. The colour of the wordmark is black. The emblem was replaced by a special design of the second letter “O”. Now it is a ball with and whirl looking like two intertwined drops with rounded wide ends and sharp thin ones. The ball is made in cyan blue colour with shades and tones that give it a 3D appearance.
The CommScope logo is associated with the company’s announced strategy that consists of providing infrastructure, solutions and products that upgrade people’s life by making communications more rapid, effortless and more productive. According to the company, its mission is making our world better connected is a sustainable manner.
2018 – now
The company updated its logo and presented a monochrome version of a logo it has been using since 2011. Otherwise, the logo looks identical to the previous version and the font is kept the same. It resembles Tafel Sans Regular but with the second “O” being stylized as the company’s unique symbol. This version looks more stylish and timeless.
