WHO WE ARE
Roots
Our story goes back to 1940, when Henry Dudley Minich founded what was then known as Tensolite.
It consisted of a team of six researchers in an old converted house in North Tarrytown, New York. They
started out investigating the properties and commercial possibilities of various plastics and synthetic fibers
and eventually began to build a reputation for producing the finest miniature insulated wire and cable in
the industry. Tensolite was an early pioneer in the application of insulation to miniature wire and was oneof the first to apply a unique material called PTFE to produce high-temperature wire and cable. In fact, thecompany’s first insulated wire product was used to electrically heat the gloves and flight suits of World War II
Air Force pilots.

GrowthToday & Tomorrow

In 1959, Tensolite became part of Carlisle
Companies, setting the stage for a legacy
of innovation. By 1998, the need forcomprehensive interconnect solutions
became apparent, leading to the birth ofCarlisle Interconnect Technologies (CIT).
A journey of expansion and acquisition
began as CIT strategically added cable
assemblies, RF/microwave and fiber optic
solutions, structures, SATCOM solutions,and custom engineering to its portfolio. Thistransformation solidified CIT as a trusted
end-to-end partner across the aerospace,
military, space, T&M, med tech, andindustrial markets.

Now, as we begin our latest chapter as
Amphenol CIT (Cable & Interconnect
Technologies), it signifies far more than
two titans joining forces. It’s a promise of
progress, a commitment to excellence, and a
testament to the power of human ingenuity.
It’s a fusion of expertise and vision whereboundaries dissolve and innovation thrives. It’s
