## History

AMP connector

In 1941, Aircraft and Marine Products (AMP) was founded to make solderless electrical connections for quick and removable wire connections used for aircraft and ships. After the war time boom, the company had to adapt to the post-war economy, and in 1956, the name of the company was changed to AMP Incorporated when it re-incorporated.[4][5] In 1999, Tyco International acquired AMP Incorporated.[6]

In September 2002, the CEO (L. Dennis Kozlowski) and CFO (Mark H. Swartz) of Tyco International Ltd. were indicted on charges including fraud, racketeering, stock manipulation, and more, amounting to more than 600 million dollars of theft.[7]

In July 2007, Tyco separated into three publicly independent companies, Covidien Ltd (formerly Tyco Healthcare), Tyco Electronics Ltd, and Tyco International Ltd (formerly Tyco Fire & Security and Tyco Engineered Products & Services (TFS/TEPS)).[8]

In 2010, the company's Tyco Telecommunications division, which provided and installed submarine communications cables, was renamed to Tyco Electronics Subsea Communications.[9]

On March 10, 2011, Tyco Electronics Ltd changed its name to TE Connectivity Ltd., which the company said felt more relevant to its position as a connectivity and sensor component manufacturer.[10][11]

On August 28, 2015, TE Connectivity announced that it has completed the sale of its broadband-networks business to CommScope Holding Co. for about US$3 billion.[12]

On February 12, 2025, TE Connectivity announced its intent to acquire Richards Manufacturing, a manufacturer of overhead and underground electrical and gas distribution products, for approximately US$2.3 billion.[13]

## Products and services

TE Connectivity's product portfolio is focused on connectors and sensors[14] that are made to withstand harsh environments.[15] The company operates three primary segments.[16]

TE's building products are used to connect lighting, HVAC, elevators/escalators, and security. Its rail products are used in high-speed trains, metros, light rail vehicles, locomotives, and signaling switching equipment.[19] Also, its products are used by the solar and lighting industry.

TE's products are used by the medical industry in imaging, diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical applications.[20]

TE Connectivity provides components for the commercial aerospace industry[21] from the initial stages of aircraft design to aftermarket support. TE's defense products include ruggedized electronic interconnects serving military aviation,[22] marine, and ground vehicles including electronic warfare and space systems. The segment also provides a wide range of relays and contactors for commercial and defense aerospace markets.[23] Its oil and gas products include cables and electronics used for subsea environments in the offshore oil and gas and civil marine industries and in shipboard, subsea, and sonar applications. TE Connectivity has produced CPU sockets compatible with Intel processors, such as LGA 771 CPU sockets.
