Interconnect Solutions

What Interconnect Solutions does

Interconnect Solutions is a privately held UK-headquartered provider of passive RF, network infrastructure, and power backup products, founded in 2005 and operating through three sub-brands: i-flex (passive Distributed Antenna System components, RF combiners, splitters, cables, and antennas for telecom in-building and outdoor coverage), i-connect (copper structured cabling up to CAT 7A, fibre optic cabling, and optical distribution frames for enterprise, FTTH, and data center applications, supported by a 25-year system warranty), and i-power (online double-conversion UPS systems from 1KVA to 600KVA, static transfer switches, automatic voltage regulators, inverters, and the ENERGEN battery line covering AGM, Gel, and Pure Gel VRLA batteries from 5Ah to 200Ah). The portfolio is technically grounded in passive RF engineering with documented low-PIM ratings (≤-160dBc) on combiners and quadplexers, multi-band support across GSM, DCS, UMTS, LTE and 5G, and DSP-controlled UPS architectures, with an i-power Remote Management System (RMS) providing web-based monitoring across deployed power devices.

The company sells through a direct e-commerce storefront (i-sol.co.uk) with same-day global dispatch, a distributor recruitment program, and event participation such as GITEX Technology Week 2019 in Dubai. Pricing is entirely quote-based across all three product lines, consistent with project-driven B2B sales rather than catalog e-commerce. The customer base is concentrated in telecommunications operators and equipment OEMs across emerging and developed markets (Vodafone, China Mobile, Telenor, Etisalat, du, STC, Nokia, Ericsson, ZTE, Siemens), with secondary verticals in banking/ATM power, healthcare, education, data centers, and industrial/PoE applications. The organization operates with a 12-person team, serves customers in Europe, the Middle East, South Asia, Africa, and Asia, and reports 1,000+ projects completed and 90% growth in FY 2019, though revenue is not publicly disclosed and no external funding or institutional ownership is indicated.
