Avnet Enhances Customized Defense and Military Offerings through Alliance with Hybricon Corp17 January 2005
Because of Hybricon's focus on leading-edge enclosure development for high-heat applications, the new relationship will provide Avnet Applied Computing Solutions with enhanced industry-leading services in thermal and structural engineering design prior to prototyping. These services are ideal for military designs and Hybricon's products can be found in high-altitude aircraft, naval ships and ruggedized Army/Marines HMMWV applications.
Under the terms of the agreement, Avnet Applied Computing Solutions will utilize Hybricon's design and program management expertise to develop custom packaging-enclosures. These enclosures will complement Avnet Applied Computing Solutions' engineering, manufacturing and supply chain management services for industrial OEMs and military prime contractors.
"Applications running in thermally challenged environments require unique engineering and design support," said Pat Cathey, president of Avnet Applied Computing Solutions. "Our new relationship with Hybricon will make it easier for OEMs that require high-heat solutions to integrate the latest technology into a tested, totally customized system designed to meet all specifications and standards for their operational environment, and will enhance the solutions we are able to provide to defense and military customers."
Hybricon's agreement with Avnet Applied Computing Solutions includes design and development solutions requiring thermal, mechanical, signal integrity, electrical and structural engineering, all of which are recognized core competencies of Hybricon. As an active member of both the PICMG and VITA standards groups, Hybricon maintains leading-edge knowledge of all the new switch fabric standards in CompactPCI, Advanced TCA, Compact TCA, VXS and VME64X.
"We are very excited to be teaming with Avnet Applied Computing Solutions and to offer their customers an additional level of engineering services that will extend their reach within the embedded systems markets," said Paul Freve, president of Hybricon. "Our 27 years of proven engineering leadership in the development of products that excite our customers can now be married with Avnet Applied Computing Solutions' concept design, engineering, manufacturing, systems integration, and supply chain management to yield totally integrated solutions that meet their customers' requirements and usually exceed their expectations."
According to Bob Sullivan, Hybricon's vice president of technology, "Advances in silicon technology, together with the emerging embedded computing industry standards from VITA and PICMG, are pushing the envelope on power dissipation and signaling speeds. This creates new challenges in backplane signal integrity and system thermal design. Hybricon understands the intricacies of these switch fabric-based industry standards, and we have the skill set and experience to ensure robust signal integrity and thermal performance of these new systems."
