WEST CHESTER, PA, USA: Communications Test Design, Inc. (CTDI), a global telecommunications repair and logistics service provider, announced the acquisition of Phoenix Wireless, a provider of wireless communications and electronics accessories.

The acquisition is strategic to CTDI and Phoenix based on financial, operational and customer synergies.

Following the acquisition by CTDI, Phoenix Wireless will continue to provide the highest quality wireless and electronics accessories under the Phoenix brand. And as a strategic and sizable parent company, CTDI will enable Phoenix Wireless to significantly expand its product offering, distribution channels and services via access to CTDI’s global capabilities.

This will enable Phoenix to deliver an exciting, evolving product set coupled with enhanced service and delivery levels. Phoenix will operate under CTDI’s products division and will bolster the company’s strong portfolio of access products.

Both the management and facilities of Phoenix Wireless will be retained following the acquisition. Phoenix will manage its customers’ sales, service and product needs without change to existing processes.
