Avnet Embedded, MiTAC Computing Enter Distribution Agreement

Avnet Embedded has entered a new distribution agreement with MiTAC Computing Technology. With this partnership, Avnet can now offer customers in industries such as industrial, aerospace, medical, energy and more new applications within the Internet of Things (IoT) field.

MiTAC’s product line includes next-generation motherboards, all-in-one and thin-client computing devices in addition to mobile and point-of-sale solutions.

“When suppliers exit a key market, like embedded motherboards, it can cause significant disruptions in customers’ manufacturing and development supply chains,” said John Salemme, vice president and general manager of Avnet Embedded. “This agreement with MiTAC Computing Technology allows Avnet to smooth the transition for motherboard customers by offering boards that are designed and manufactured as drop-in replacements for many of the devices being transitioned out of production. In addition, MiTAC Computing Technology’s comprehensive range of cloud services, cloud computing products and client computing devices are a great fit for our customers seeking to engage more broadly in the IoT space.”
