About Us
About the CCCA
CCCA is a non-profit corporation, started in June 2007 when a small group of executives from leading cable & connectivity manufacturers, a leading distributor and a material supplier met to explore ways to address communication network performance issues caused by non-compliant and counterfeit structured cabling components as well as identify potential threats to public safety these components may represent.
CCCA was formed on the principle that the industry could be served and strengthened by leveraging the efforts of individual leading firms into a single “voice” and mission that would benefit the structured cabling community and its supply chain. Today, the association’s backbone is an active Board of Directors and working committees that manage the association, execute our mission and provide a platform for member benefits and initiatives.
