ITEM 2.   ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

On November 1, 1996, pursuant to the terms of a Stockholders Agreement 
dated December 22, 1992  (the "Stockholders Agreement") by and among Oak 
Industries Inc. (the "Company"), Connector Holding Company ("Connector"), 
and each of Tyler Capital Fund, L.P., Tyler Massachusetts, L.P., Tyler 
International, L.P. - II, BCIP Associates and BCIP Trust Associates, L.P. 
(collectively, the "Bain Affiliates") and Bain Venture Capital, the 
Company purchased all of the shares of common stock, $.01 par value, of 
Connector owned by the Bain Affiliates (the "Shares").  The Company 
purchased the Shares, which constituted 20% of the outstanding stock of 
Connector, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $95,000,000, 
including transaction expenses.  As a result of the purchase, Connector is 
a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  The purchase price for the 
shares was determined through negotiations conducted by the parties with 
the involvement of investment bankers pursuant to procedures set forth in 
the Stockholders Agreement.  The transaction was financed with borrowings 
from a new $300 million unsecured revolving credit agreement entered into 
by the Company, also on November 1, 1996, with certain lenders from time 
to time a party thereto, and the Chase Manhattan Bank, as Administrative 
Agent and Issuing Bank.

                                          [Increase (Decrease) Income]


1. Increase in interest expense on new 
   borrowings at rates ranging from
   5.56% to 6.94% in 1995 and from
   6.06% to 6.28% in 1996.                   $ (6,649)          $ (4,541)

(d)   Not included in the pro forma condensed combined statements of 
operations are two nonrecurring charges.  The first charge is to cost of 
sales resulting from the adjustment to increase inventories to fair value.  
This charge, which is estimated to be $625,000, will flow through cost of 
sales as the inventory is assumed to be sold.  The second charge, which is 
estimated to be $949,000, relates to the early extinguishment of debt.  
Both will be reported as unusual items in the fourth quarter of 1996.
