BizLink Holding announced an agreement to acquire Interplex Datacom, a division of Ennovi and a portfolio company of funds managed by Blackstone and its affiliates, in an all-cash transaction valued at $850 million, plus up to $50 million in contingent consideration.

The acquisition represents another strategic move for the interconnect solutions provider and strengthens its data center connectivity and infrastructure business amid rising demand for AI infrastructure.

Headquartered in Singapore, Interplex Datacom develops customized interconnect solutions and precision mechanical products. The business has more than 65 years of operating history, approximately 1,900 employees, and manufacturing operations in China, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand. For the 12 months ended March 31, 2026, Interplex Datacom generated about $392 million in revenue.

The company specializes in mechanical and structural components used in AI server racks, complementing BizLink’s expertise in electrical connectivity. The combination is expected to strengthen BizLink’s position as a provider of integrated data center infrastructure solutions and expand its capabilities in precision metals fabrication, semiconductor enclosures, medical equipment, and system integration assembly.

BizLink said the acquisition will enhance its ability to respond to customer demand, accelerate product development cycles, and support growing AI infrastructure deployments across Asia.

The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. BizLink plans to finance the acquisition through a combination of existing cash and committed debt financing provided by Citigroup.

Citigroup is serving as exclusive financial advisor to BizLink, while Baker McKenzie and EY-Parthenon are advising on legal and due diligence matters. J.P. Morgan Securities Asia Private Limited is acting as exclusive financial advisor to Blackstone, with Freshfields and Deloitte serving as legal and due diligence advisors.
