Amphenol Nears $10.5 Billion Purchase of CommScope Broadband Arm

Amphenol Corp. is in advanced discussions to acquire CommScope Holding Co.’s broadband connectivity and cable solutions division in a transaction valued at roughly $10–10.5 billion including debt, according to multiple reports citing people familiar with the matter. The broadband unit, CommScope’s largest by revenue and operating income, makes fiber-optic cables and related hardware used in data centers and high-speed networks. Buying the business would be Amphenol’s biggest deal to date, deepening its exposure to fiber infrastructure as artificial-intelligence applications drive a surge in data-center construction. An agreement could be announced as early as Monday, the reports said. The move follows Amphenol’s $2.1 billion cash purchase last year of CommScope’s outdoor wireless network and distributed-antenna-systems operations. Representatives for Amphenol and CommScope have not commented on the reported talks.
