Mouser Electronics, Inc., the fastest growing electronic components distributor in the industry, today announced it has signed a global distribution agreement with PLX Technology, a leading supplier of PCI Express™ (PCIe) bridges, switches, and other standard I/O interconnect silicon, including PCI and PCI-X bridges, USB controllers, and I/O Accelerators.

PLX® interconnect products, including the ExpressLane™ family of PCIe switching and bridging devices, support multiple port and link configurations and serve the needs of the communications, server, storage, embedded-control, and consumer markets. Products are now available to buy online through Mouser’s e-commerce website at www.mouser.com/plxtechnology.

“Mouser will be a tremendous addition to our sales organization due to their reputation for rapid introduction of new products to the channel,” said Matt Ready, vice president of sales at PLX. “Mouser’s unique customer base will complement PLX’s sales efforts as both companies work toward satisfying the growing global demand for PCI Express and other standard interconnect devices.”

Mouser reaches a unique customer base of well over 100,000 diverse business accounts that represent a wide range of small, medium and large companies, as well as individual consultants who recommend, specify and purchase board-level components for product designs that other distributors don’t reach.

In addition to their unique customer base, Mouser’s focus centers on offering the newest, most innovative products and the latest technologies, giving Mouser customers a time-to-market advantage no other distributor can deliver.

“Our customers’ design projects require fast introduction of the newest products and technologies available in the marketplace,” said John Crawford, Mouser product marketing director. “By adding the technology-driven products from PLX to both our print and online catalogs, we’re able to quickly satisfy our engineering customers’ requirements.”

Mouser’s broad-based product line, unsurpassed customer service, and streamlined warehouse operations make Mouser the design engineer’s one-stop shop for all the board-level components necessary for total product design.

In addition, Mouser delivers the very best possible customer service – regardless of the size of the customer or the size of the order. The company’s policy of breaking packs, no minimum orders, and same-day shipping is especially attractive to design engineers working in the prototyping stage of the design cycle.
