SIDNEY, NY, July 31, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Amphenol Industrial, a global leader in interconnect systems, introduces Amphe-BTS, a new power connector designed to provide power from a wireless, mast-mounted base station to a remote radio head. This compact, energy-efficient connector meets the strict requirements set forth by the next generation of base stations.
