Kontron announces partner agreement with Connect Tech
Kontron has signed a partner agreement with Connect Tech, Inc to extend complementary Computer-on-Module products into each company's respective portfolio offering. As a full service hardware design company that specialises in rugged, small form factor products, Connect Tech specialises in both COTS and customisation of carrier boards for many industry standards. The agreement gives embedded systems OEMs more options in the availability of module-based products and modification services, enabling them to more quickly develop, scale and deploy a broader range of small form factor applications.
Kontron has more than 14 years of experience delivering proven Computer-on-Module products that have become the preferred options of application developers. As a driving influencer of standards-based modules and a member of PICMG and SMARC consortiums, Kontron understands the support customers need to help them reduce time-to-market. Kontron will display COM Express and SMARC Computer-on-Modules with Connect Tech carrier boards at Eurosatory, in booth #C681, Hall 6, June 13-17 at the Defense & Security International Exhibition in Paris.
Michele Kasza, Vice President of Sales at Connect Tech says: "This collaboration is a win for our embedded customers. The additional product availability offered by Connect Tech and Kontron ensure our customers have greater embedded computing options specifically matched to their application requirements. It also means they have just the right solutions they need to more rapidly meet market opportunities and shrinking time-to-deployment schedules."
Kevin Rhoads, Executive Vice President of the Avionics, Transportation and Defense business unit at Kontron notes: "Standards-based and scalable design flexibility is what our customers demand today. As system density increases and power levels must fall, developers want ready access to a full array of building block platforms that give them multi-core performance, ultra-low power consumption, and the features needed to differentiate their products and gain a competitive advantage. With increased module and carrier board choices afforded now by Kontron and Connect Tech, our customers can better satisfy the dynamic requirements of demanding next-generation applications."
