1. telecommunications
and electronics
If you knew Tyco last year, look again. The Company has evolved into a leader in the
fast-paced, high-tech world of electronics. Our merger with AMP, the world’s largest maker of
electrical connectors, and the acquisition of Raychem, a leading manufacturer of
high-performance electrical components, created the nucleus for the formation of Tyco Elec-
tronics Corporation, the world’s largest supplier of passive electronic components. The diverse
capabilities of AMP and Raychem, combined with the soaring growth of our telecommunica-
tions business, means that in fiscal 2000 Tyco will derive 40 percent of its revenue from
telecommunications and electronics. The products we make are hard to see, but they are vir-
tually everywhere—you use them every day. You’ll find AMP and
Raychem connectors, as well as wireless, touch screen and fiber optic components, in
cellular products, computers, instrumentation, industrial machinery, aerospace and defense
applications, automobiles, household appliances and consumer electronics. AMP and
Raychem technologies fit perfectly with the ongoing advances in
telecommunications and automotive electronics. In November 1999,
we acquired Siemens’ Electromechanical Components unit,
Tyco’s Printed Circuit Group provides
high-precision, multilayered printed
circuit boards to the telecommunications,
aerospace and computer industries.
