Trexon, a portfolio company of Audax Private Equity, has announced that it has completed the acquisition of Intelliconnect, a supplier of RF connectors, adapters, and cable assemblies.

Founded in 2003 and based in Chelmsford, in the UK, Intelliconnect has grown rapidly and established itself as a market leader in design-led RF (radio frequency) components. 

Commenting on the acquisition Mark Twaalfhoven, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Trexon said that the addition of Intelliconnect brought a customer-centric organisation with a level of expertise and experience to the group. “It aligns with the Trexon’s strategic vision of delivering application specific solutions and their innovation enables the development of critical technologies that support key megatrend drivers such as AI and the application for quantum computing.”

Dr. Nildeep Patel, President of Trexon Engineered Products Division added, “Adding Intelliconnect to the Engineered Products portfolio builds on our current expertise in RF products designed for highly engineered systems for a range of applications. Their unique capability of combining high precision RF products performing at cryogenic temperatures adds yet another dimension to our already proven RF technology range.”

Intelliconnect’s founder, Roy Phillips said that after nearly 20 years of success and growth, the company had recognised that it needed to be part of a bigger, financially stronger group in order to move to the ‘next level’.

“We are confident that Trexon is the perfect partner. Their strong track record in acquiring good businesses and making them better whilst investing and supporting their existing teams is one of the key reasons that we chose them as our acquirer,” said Phillips.

We have worked hard to build a solid platform of best-in-class services and products and we’re pleased to be partnering with the wider Trexon family to take us to the next level and beyond.”
