What Cable Connectivity Group does

Cable Connectivity Group (CCG), the Industrial Cable Connectivity Unit of Infinite Electronics International, Inc. and operating under TKD Kabel GmbH, manufactures, distributes and assembles specialty cables and cable connectivity solutions for industrial customers. Its core technology is flexible low-voltage cables, supplemented by engineered assemblies such as servo assemblies, spiral cables, woven ribbon cables, and INDULINK connectivity accessories; production, custom cable manufacturing and value-added assembly services are all delivered in-house, supported by digital procurement integration (EDI, EPLAN, electronic invoicing, video consulting). The group operates as three business units — Production (KCI), Distribution (Jobarco, Pantaflex, TKD Kabel, ConCab) and Assembly (Capable, Schrade) — with direct sales, wholesale distribution and a direct e-commerce storefront, plus a strategic channel partnership with RS Group extending into European and APAC markets after the November 2025 expansion.

CCG is headquartered in Benthuizen, Netherlands, with manufacturing and distribution operations in 7 European countries (Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Poland, France) plus China and the United States, employing 501–1,000 people. Heritage dates to 1933 and seven legacy brands have been consolidated under the CCG umbrella. Customers include industrial OEMs, industrial wholesalers, and assembly partners across industrial automation, data center, machinery and plant engineering, agricultural technology, food and beverage, elevator construction, conveyor technology, and crane and lifting equipment verticals. Pricing is quote-based for custom cable solutions and assemblies; CCG follows a horizontal segmentation strategy serving diverse industrial end-markets rather than concentrating on a single vertical.

The business model is multi-revenue-stream B2B hardware sales: cable manufacturing and sales to OEMs and wholesalers, distribution and assembly services for custom cable harnesses and connectivity solutions, and channel distribution through RS Group's platform. Go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales in each operating country, regional wholesale distribution via retained brand portfolios, and a direct e-commerce shop at shop.tkd-kabel.de. The 2023 acquisition by Infinite Electronics International provides parent-level scale, procurement and cross-selling synergies (including with Bulgin), while the 2025 expansion of the RS Group agreement broadens geographic reach for L-com connectivity products into Europe and APAC with planned assortment growth in 2026.

Direct peers

• Belden Inc. US-listed specialist in industrial networking cables, signal transmission, and connectivity solutions for industrial, broadcast, and enterprise markets. Comparable as a vertically integrated cable-and-connectivity manufacturer with a strong industrial-customer focus.
• Leoni AG: European manufacturer of cables, wiring systems, and related services for automotive, industrial, and infrastructure applications. Comparable to CCG in end-to-end cable production and assembly services, though more exposed to automotive than CCG's industrial mix.
• igus: German manufacturer specializing in flexible cables (chainflex), cable carriers, and ready-to-connect harnesses for industrial automation and motion applications. Highly comparable to CCG's specialty industrial cable range, including spiral and servo assembly offerings.
• Lapp Group: German-headquartered family-owned manufacturer of cables, cable accessories, connectors, and cable systems for industrial automation and machinery. Directly comparable to CCG's Production and Distribution business units (KCI, TKD), serving the same European industrial OEM customer base.
• Helukabel: German cable manufacturer and distributor offering flexible control cables, data cables, and special-purpose cables for industrial applications. Closely comparable to CCG's core flexible low-voltage cable portfolio across European markets with multi-country distribution.

Broad incumbents

• Nexans: Global French-headquartered cable manufacturer covering energy, telecom, and industrial markets. Comparable in industrial cable categories but with substantially larger scale, broader product breadth, and significant utility-infrastructure exposure CCG does not target.
• TE Connectivity: Global leader in connectivity and sensor solutions with a meaningful cable-assembly and wire-harness business serving industrial, automotive, and aerospace markets. Comparable to CCG's assembly and harness offerings, but operates as a much larger broad-line connectivity supplier.
• Prysmian Group: World's largest cable manufacturer, producing power, telecom, and specialty cables globally. Overlaps with CCG in industrial and specialty cable segments but operates at vastly greater scale and with broader end-market exposure including utilities and telecom infrastructure.

Emerging players

• Bulgin: UK-based connectivity products manufacturer (connectors, fuses, switches) acquired by Infinite Electronics in 2023 alongside CCG. Sister-company within the same parent platform, serving adjacent connectivity categories with overlapping European industrial customers.

Others

• RS Group (RS Components): Global industrial product distributor serving maintenance, OEM, and electronics customers across Europe and APAC. Strategic channel partner to CCG (and broader Infinite Electronics) since the expanded 2025 cooperation, distributing connectivity products through the RS website — comparable as a distribution channel and indirect competitor via private-label catalog offerings.
