FUCHT International, 25 Junt 1964 AMPHENOL (pearls of the connector world)NOW MADE IN WHITSTABLE WHITSTABLE renowned for itsoyster beds and lying close to the Isle of Thanet, site of the early Saxon watchfire system, has today found new fame as the home of Amphenol-Borg in Britain. The new factory, 33,000 square feet perfectly placed alongside the busy Thanet Way, was opened in October 1961 to provide Britain and an. ever- widening export market with a new fully equipped and more readily access- ible source of Amphenol's high grade electronic products. Tooling was im- mediately begun for a broad range of components, and today. Amphenol products are in full production. Al- ready 60% of Amphenol products for the British market is being manufact- ured here. Amphenol connectors have been proved for gruelling conditions of missile blast-off, orbital flight and nuclear energy applications . . . for use in com- puters, where accuracy is paramount, and for the high demands of radio and radar applications where equipment dare not fail. They range from the ordinary coaxial type to the glass-to-metal seal of 9,000 p.s.i. strength—from the standard MS type to the 100-way umbilical connector weighing 70 lbs—all of uncompromising reliability. For connectors built to one quality standard, one name stands out— Amphenol! fimpnEno Amphenol-Borg (Electronics) Limited Thanet Way, Tankerton, Whitstable, Kent Whitstable 4345-9 Telex 89157 Oversea* Distributor!: Denmark Semler & Matthiassen Finland Nores <fe Co.
