RFMW Ltd. Adds Rakon to Line Card

by

RFMW Ltd. (‘RFMW’) announced a distribution agreement with Rakon Limited (‘Rakon’) effective November 6, 2018. Under the agreement, RFMW is authorized to market and sell Rakon’s portfolio of frequency control and timing solutions. Rakon offers high-performance crystal oscillators, OCXOs, OCSOs, TCXOs, VCXOs, XOs and crystal resonators. RFMW is a specialized distributor providing customers and suppliers with focused distribution of RF and microwave components as well as specialized component-engineering support.

“We are pleased to welcome RFMW as one of our sales channel partners” stated Hugh Tucker, Global Sales Administration and Marketing Manager at Rakon. “Having RFMW as an authorized distributor provides a new window of opportunity. It enables Rakon to reach a wider customer base and extends our reach to accounts where Rakon does not currently have a presence.” Mr. Tucker continued with “RFMW has valuable expertise in a highly specialized area. Adding Rakon products to their portfolio broadens their product offering to the customers they serve, who typically require radio frequency or microwave component solutions.”

Mr. Tucker confirmed there will be no change in contacts for Rakon’s existing customers. “We continue to have a dedicated and global customer and technical support team who deal with our existing customers and work closely with them in the local markets in which we operate.”

According to Steve Takaki, Executive Vice President of RFMW, “The addition of Rakon’s portfolio offers our customers market leading products achieved through unique proprietary processes, continual R&D, and constant technological advancement. Combined with other frequency control and timing technologies, customers will benefit from our product expansion as we move into new markets. RFMW strives to be the ‘go-to’ resource for consultative RF expertise and new-design component selection.”
