SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP or GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the requirements of Rule 10-01 of RegulationS-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March31, 2009 contained in the Companys Annual Report on Form10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March31, 2010. The Company evaluated subsequent events for disclosure through February 2, 2010. The Companys third fiscal quarter ends on December31, and the fourth fiscal quarter and year ends on March31 of each year. The first fiscal quarters ended on July 3, 2009 and June 27, 2008, respectively, and the second fiscal quarters ended on October 2, 2009 and September 26, 2008, respectively. Customer Credit Risk The Company has an established customer credit policy, through which it manages customer credit exposures through credit evaluations, credit limit setting, monitoring, and enforcement of credit limits for new and existing customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers financial condition and makes provisions for doubtful accounts based on the outcome of those credit evaluations. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on specific customer circumstances, current economic trends, historical experience with collections and the age of past due receivables. To the extent the Company identifies exposures as a result of credit or customer evaluations, the Company also reviews other customer related exposures, including but not limited to inventory and related contractual obligations. During the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2008, the Company incurred $145.3 million and $262.7 million of charges, respectively, for Nortel and other customers that filed for bankruptcy or restructuring protection or otherwise were experiencing significant financial and liquidity difficulties. Of these charges, the Company classified approximately $98.0 million and $194.7 million in cost of sales related to the write-down of inventory and associated contractual obligations and $47.3 million and $68.0 million as selling, general and administrative expenses for provisions for doubtful accounts and other claims, respectively. In November 2009, the Company agreed to a settlement with Nortel primarily related to pre-bankruptcy petition claims. As a result, the Company revised its estimates related to the recovery of Norte |

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract] | |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | 3. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company grants equity compensation awards to acquire the Companys ordinary shares from four plans, and which collectively are referred to as the Companys equity compensation plans below. For further discussion of these Plans, refer to Note2, Summary of Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended March31, 2009. Compensation expense for the Companys stock options and unvested share bonus awards was as follows: Three-Month Periods Ended Nine-Month Periods Ended December 31, December 31, 2009 2008 2009 2008 (In thousands) (In thousands) Cost of sales $ 2,712 $ 2,607 $ 7,727 $ 6,798 Selling, general and administrative expenses 11,275 15,179 34,458 42,500 Total stock-based compensation expense $ 13,987 $ 17,786 $ 42,185 $ 49,298 On July 14, 2009, the Company launched an exchange offer under which eligible employees had the opportunity to voluntarily exchange their eligible stock options granted under certain of the Companys equity compensation plans for a lesser amount of replacement stock options granted under one of the Companys current equity incentive plans with new exercise prices equal to the closing price of the Companys ordinary shares on the date of exchange (the Exchange). The Exchange offer was open to all active U.S. and international employees of the Company, except in those jurisdictions where the local law, administrative burden or similar considerations made participation in the program illegal, inadvisable or impractical, and where exclusion otherwise was consistent with the Companys compensation policies with respect to those jurisdictions. The Exchange offer was not open to the Companys Board of Directors or its executive officers. To be eligible for exchange an option must: (i) have had an exercise price of at least $10.00 per share, (ii) have been outstanding, and (iii) have been granted at least 12 months prior to the commencement date of the Exchange offer. All replacement option grants were subject to a vesting schedule of two, three or four years from the date of grant of the replacement options depending on the remaining vesting period of the option grants surrendered for cancellation in the Exchange. The number of replacement options an eligible employee received in exchange for an eligible option grant was determined by an exchange ratio applicable to that option. Stock options with exercise prices between $10.00 and $11.99 were exchangeable for new options at a rate of 1.5 existing options per new option grant, and stock options with exercise prices of $12.00 or more were exchangeable at a rate of 2.4 existing options per new option grant. Outstanding options covering approximately 29.8 million shares were eligible to participate in the Exchange. The Exchange was completed on August 11, 2009. Approximately 27.9 million stock options were tendered in the Exchange, and approximately 16.9 million replacement options were granted with an exercise price of $5.57, a weighted average vesting term of 1.58 years, and a con |

Ordinary share equivalents from stock options to purchase approximately 26.8 million and 42.7 million shares outstanding during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2009, respectively, and 73.3 million and 68.2 million shares outstanding during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2008, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share primarily because the exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the Companys ordinary shares during the respective periods. (2) On July 31, 2009, the principal amount of the Companys Zero Coupon Convertible Junior Subordinated Notes was settled in cash upon maturity. These notes carried conversion provisions to issue shares to settle any conversion spread (excess of the conversion value over the conversion price) in stock. The conversion price was $10.50 per share. On the maturity date the Companys stock price was less than the conversion price, and therefore no shares were issued. During December 2008, the Company purchased an aggregate principal amount of $260.0 million of its outstanding 1% Convertible Subordinated Notes, which resulted in a reduction of the ordinary share equivalents into which such notes were convertible from approximately 32.2 million to approximately 15.5 million. As the Company has the positive intent and ability to settle the principal amount of these notes in cash, all ordinary share equivalents related to the principal portion of |

On July 31, 2009, the Company paid $195.0 million to redeem the Zero Coupon Convertible Junior Subordinated Notes upon their maturity. These notes carried conversion provisions to issue shares to settle any conversion spread (excess of the conversion value over the conversion price) in stock. The conversion price was $10.50 per share. On the maturity date, the Companys stock price was less than the conversion price, and therefore no shares were issued. During June 2009, the Company paid approximately $203.2 million to purchase an aggregate principal amount of $99.8 million of its outstanding 6.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 and an aggregate principal amount of $99.9 million of its outstanding 6.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 collectively referred to as the Notes in a cash tender offer (the Offer). The cash paid included $8.8 million in consent fees (as discussed further below) paid to holders of the Notes that were tendered but not purchased as well as to holders that consented but did not tender, which were capitalized and are being recognized as a component of interest expense over the remaining life of the Notes. The Company recognized an immaterial gain during the nine-month period ended December 31, 2009 associated with the partial extinguishment of the Notes, net of approximately $5.3 million for transaction costs and the write-down of related debt issuance costs, which is included in Other charges, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In conjunction with the Offer, the Company obtained consents to certain amendments to the restricted payments covenants and certain related definitions in each of the indentures (the Indentures) under which the Notes were issued. The amendments permit the Company greater flexibility to purchase or make other payments in respect of its equity securities and debt that is subordinated to the Notes and to make certain other restricted payments under each Indenture. Adjustments to Beginning Accumulated Deficit and Interest Expense On April 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard related to accounting for convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion. |

Certain of these contracts are designed to economically hedge the Companys exposure to monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a non-functional currency and are not treated as hedges under the accounting standards. Accordingly, changes in fair value of these instruments are recognized in earnings during the period of change as a component of Interest and other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2009 and March31, 2009, the Company also has included net deferred gains and losses, respectively, in other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, relating to changes in fair value of its foreign currency contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. These deferred gains and losses were not material, and the deferred gains as of December 31, 2009 are expected to be recognized as a component of gross profit in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations over the next twelve month period. The gains and losses recognized in earnings due to hedge ineffectiveness were not material for all fiscal periods presented and are included as a component of Interest and other expense, net in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Interest Rate Swap Agreements The Company is also exposed to variability in cash flows associated with changes in short-term interest rates primarily on borrowings under its revolving credit facility and term loan agreement. During fiscal years 2009 and 2008, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to mitigate the exposure to interest rate risk resulting from unfavorab |

Trade Receivables Securitization [Abstract] | |
TRADE RECEIVABLES SECURITIZATION | 8.TRADE RECEIVABLES SECURITIZATION The Company continuously sells designated pools of trade receivables under two asset backed securitization programs. Global Asset-Backed Securitization Agreement The Company continuously sells a designated pool of trade receivables to a third-party qualified special purpose entity, which in turn sells an undivided ownership interest to two commercial paper conduits, administered by an unaffiliated financial institution. In addition to these commercial paper conduits, the Company participates in the securitization agreement as an investor in the conduit. The securitization agreement allows the operating subsidiaries participating in the securitization program to receive a cash payment for sold receivables, less a deferred purchase price receivable. The Company continues to service, administer and collect the receivables on behalf of the special purpose entity and receives a servicing fee of 1.00% of serviced receivables per annum. Servicing fees recognized during the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were not material and are included in Interest and other expense, net within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As the Company estimates that the fee it receives in return for its obligation to service these receivables is at fair value, no servicing assets or liabilities are recognized. During October 2009, the agreement was amended such that the Obligor Specific Tranche (OST) in the amount of $100.0 million was removed, and the maximum investment limit of the two commercial paper conduits was increased to $500.0 million exclusive of the OST.
