Abstract: We define a reduced $infty$-operad $mathcalP$ to be $d$-connected if the spaces $mathcalPleft(night)$, of $n$-ary operations, are $d$-connected for all $nge0$. Let $mathcalP$ and $mathcalQ$ be two reduced $infty$-operads. We prove that if $mathcalP$ is $d_1$-connected and $mathcalQ$ is $d_2$-connected, then their Boardman-Vogt tensor product $mathcalPotimesmathcalQ$ is $left(d_1+d_2+2ight)$-connected. We consider this to be a natural $infty$-categorical generalization of the classical Eckmann-Hilton argument.
