The United States Department of Transportation’s Buy America programme requires that transportation infrastructure projects use American-made products. Amphenol has announced that it is now participating in this programme.

The Buy America programme provides government funds only to American companies that either use or produce steel, iron and manufactured goods generated solely in the United States. Amphenol, who supplies interconnects for onboard electrical equipment including HVAC, propulsion, event recorders, brakes, lighting, door systems, communication devices, passenger information systems as well as monitoring and diagnostic equipment, qualifies for the program.

Locomotive and car manufacturers, MRO (maintenance/repair/overhaul) companies, equipment manufacturers as well as transit authorities worldwide all benefit from Amphenol’s high-quality, proven connector products.

Martin Booker, General Manager, Amphenol Industrial Products Group said, “Today’s modern railway systems demand cost-efficient, cutting edge technical solutions. Amphenol prides itself on the ability to provide interconnect solutions that meet the stringent requirements of the railway system, while supporting the Buy America initiative. We are proud to have supplied, served and offered solutions to the rail market for over 50 years, both domestically and internationally."
