Um, Apple products have long been made in China. Fair-Rite has had one
or more factories in China for more than a decade. "Made in China" does
NOT define the product as junk. Last I heard, Amphenol is making
connectors in Mexico. Having bought and installed several hundred in the
last decade, the only faults I've found are a few whose screw threads
were short.
And you trust someone working in a trade show booth to know this?
Someone selling junk connectors who disparages a competitor?
