Riverside, Calif., June 19, 2009 Bourns, Inc. today announces that the company has purchased substantially all of the assets of the central office surge protection products business from Corning Cable Systems LLC, part of Corning Incorporated"s Telecommunications segment.

Corning Cable Systems" central office surge protection products, which include 5-pin, 4-pin, 1-pin protector modules, related protector blocks, connectors and protector panels, are sold principally to Telcos for use in central office and remote access cabinet surge protection applications in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
