EBV Elektronik, an Avnet (NYSE: AVT) group company and the leading specialist in EMEA semiconductor distribution, signed a Europe wide distribution agreement with Taoglas, a leading worldwide provider of IoT (Internet of Things) and M2M (Machine to Machine) The agreement is effective immediately.
Taoglas provides a comprehensive range of SMD, external and embedded antenna solutions for M2M and IoT applications. By partnering with EBV, Taoglas will further expand its channels to market in the European region.
“Taoglas antenna solutions portfolio for IoT and M2M applications is a great addition to our portfolio enabling our customers to get access to leading technology and solutions as well as benefitting from in-depth application know-how and industry expertise”, comments Oliver Kanzler, Director Vertical Segment RF & Wireless at EBV Elektronik. “Besides the performance of the RF communication IC or wireless module, the efficiency and reliability of the antenna in conjunction with its mounting position in a system is crucial to achieve the best possible link range. As Taoglas also offers cable assemblies and RF connectors, EBV can now provide the complete ecosystem to their customers including services like pre-certification testing, layout review and customized antennas by Taoglas. Their broad range of high quality antennas with various mounting options is impressive and key for all kinds of wireless systems.”
Ronan Quinlan, Joint CEO and Co-Founder of Taoglas states: “We are delighted to have signed a distribution agreement with EBV for the European region. EBV's leadership in the semiconductor distribution channel in Europe is well known. The challenges in the wireless market are that the applications become ever more complex and varied, the range of products increase, whilst time to development shortens. No one company can provide the answer. So partnerships between the leaders in IoT are needed more than ever to find the 'signal in the noise'! We provide the right antenna solution immediately, and EBV's logistical capabilities will provide products at shortest delivery times to customers large and small. The most important differentiator for us is that EBV has offices and real FAE engineering support in nearly every European country. All are backed up by a core team of wireless specialists, meaning our mutual customers receive real in person support with the solution to their needs.”
