ACAL Technology sign exclusive pan-European agreement following RFMD acquisition of Sirenza/PDI/Microlinear

RFMD’s rationalisation of Sirenza’s distribution network means that ACAL Technology will support customers throughout Europe with design-in and concept-enabling using RFMD’s complete product portfolio. This includes RFMD’s power amplifiers and wireless solutions for infrastructure and wireless local area networks (WLAN) as well as Sirenza/PDI’s transceivers, signal source, signal processing and other RF components for multi-market applications.

Martin Kemp, European Product Manager, ACAL RF & Wireless explained, “This agreement adds more than 75 new products to ACAL’s wireless linecard, including the world's leading power amplifiers in wireless LAN, Wimax and new technology areas such as GaN. RFMDs multimarket product group will allow ACAL to further penetrate the broadband, consumer, CATV, aerospace & defence, test & instrumentation and wireless infrastructure markets.”

The combination of ACAL’s specialist engineering support with the strength of the RFMD product portfolios delivers a compelling mix for customers across a broad range of applications who want to reduce the form-factor, overall cost and time-to-market of next-generation wireless systems.” Added Colin Hunt, European Sales Manager, RFMD.
