Cogent Distribution has become a UK value-added distributor for wireless transport outfit SIAE Microelettronica.
Cogent will primarily focus on SIAE Microelettronica’s high capacity long range communication link solutions. The full outdoor solutions are particularly well-suited to the education sector including colleges and universities, as they can be deployed with minimal infrastructure, including roof-top deployments.
The move sees Cogent add SIAE Microelettronica solutions to its portfolio. The distributor plans ambitious growth.
SIAE Microelettronica provides carrier class solutions which are used by the leading Global Network Operators and has successfully deployed thousands of microwave & millimetre links in the UK & Ireland.
Jim Kernahan, Managing Director, Cogent Distribution said: “Earlier this year we recognised a gap in the Cogent product line for a high capacity long-range input communication link solution, an area which SIAE Microelettronica excels in, so as we had a long-standing relationship we began planning how we could work together to fill this gap. Working with SIAE Microelettronica gives us access to a wide range of resources including technical support, training, seminars and consulting and we’re delighted to be on board and can’t wait to channel these solutions to our customer base.”
SIAE Microelettronica’s Steve Goddard, UK & Ireland Business Development Manager said: “We are extremely pleased to be working with an established and recognised connectivity specialist company such as Cogent Distribution and we are excited at the prospect of the growth our collaboration will bring.”
