Andrew Acquires Precision Antennas

Andrew Corp., has acquired England’s Precision Antennas Ltd., a provider of antennas for terrestrial and satellite communications systems. Andrew paid about $26 million to acquire the subsidiary of U.K.-based Cobham PLC.

“Precision Antennas is a strong complement to Andrew’s existing portfolio of antenna systems and products,” John DeSana, group president, Andrew’s Antenna and Cable Products Group, said in a statement. “The addition of Precision strengthens Andrew’s market position in microwave antennas and enhances our ability to support the future needs of existing and new customers.”
