XCELL

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “XCELL” is dead and was abandoned by Litton Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, after the applicant failed to file a Statement of Use or an extension request following the Notice of Allowance. The mark was registered on the Principal Register for class 009, covering high‑density electronic signal connectors such as modular plugs and sockets used to interconnect printed circuit boards for data transmission in computers, telecommunications, and electronic equipment. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same technical field of electronic connectors and related data‑signal components. This history does not give the owner control over every use of the word “XCELL” in other industries. The prosecution history shows the applicant received a Notice of Allowance, filed and received two extensions, but ultimately abandoned the application. No opposition, cancellation, or enforcement activity appears in the supplied record. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status suggests a lower risk, but the specific goods listed still present a focused concern in the electronic connector market.
