Electromagnetic News Report, Jul/Aug 2006

Schurter has presented its U.S. National Distributor of the Year Award for 2005 to Avnet IP and E. Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, the company is one of Schurter's key distributor partners, having shown doubledigit growth in North American sales in the last four consecutive years.

"Avnet's growth and success with the Schurter lines of fuses, circuit breakers, power entry modules and EMC filter products can be attributed to its focus on developing new markets and the presentation of key OEM accounts," said Bob Barnes, sales manager east for Schurter.

Avnet IP and E carries the full line of Schurter products, including power entry modules, EMI/RFI filters, circuit breakers, fuses and fuseholders, in addition to a line of vandal-resistant switch products.
