RF & Wireless Solutions Guide
RF & Wireless Solutions www.em.avnet.com/r f 800-332-8638 RF & Wireless Design Solutions From design to volume production, offers products, services and tools that accelerate customer success. As technology standards evolve and new RF design solutions emerge, electronic original equipment manufacturers (EOEMs) and electronic manufacturing services (EMS) providers must remain compliant with the latest standards while also selecting products that allow for maximum design flexibility without compromising performance or reliability. When integrating RF and wireless technologies into an application, developers have many design options from which to choose. Avnet s RF design experts act as technical solution consultants, rather than business development or sales managers, by offering the engineering community differentiated products and services that accelerate design cycles, augment constrained resources and meet cost and functionality requirements. Avnet s wide selection of products and services is complemented by systems-oriented RF Field Application Engineers (FAEs). Avnet RF FAEs give customers of all sizes, regardless of production volume requirements, access to bestin-class wireless products and first-class engineering support, helping to achieve faster time-to-prototype, market and revenue. Avnet RF FAE Profile Participates in annual factory training programs Averages 16 years of design experience Holds an electrical engineering degree Has knowledge of new product roadmaps, reference designs and development tools Has embedded wireless design expertise Supports the needs of customers in local markets Provides insight into technologies, end applications and vertical market segments Avnet specializes in crafting complete RF and wireless solutions that leverage discrete and/or modular technologies from industry-leading manufacturers and supporting these solutions with associated design-chain and supply-chain services.
