FCI’s Basics+ programme is designed to offer outstanding
service on industry standard connectors and has long been
popular with customers looking for convenient solutions
when designing interconnects.
The programme expanded worldwide in November 2006. Now FCI
and Arrow have announced the next step in the programme; the
pan-European initiative will be exclusively promoted with Arrow
and subsidiaries in various European countries. In Northern Europe,
the programme will be offered by Arrow UK and Arrow Nordic.
The campaign will include a new catalogue and website featuring a
variety of new products, including a selection of fully customisable
pin header parts, an expanded 2mm modular system and specially
designed products for pin-in-paste processes.
To ensure short lead times, Arrow will stock the core range of FCI
products while the Basics+ programme will also see most catalogue
parts ready to ship from the factory in three days. A design service
for specials and custom lines will also be offered.
“We chose Arrow as our promotion partner for this campaign
because Arrow fully understands the meaning of giving good
service,” said Paul Isaac, FCI’s global product marketing manager
for the Basics+ programme. “The strength of Arrow’s logistics
system and customer relationships fully complement what we are
trying to do with Basics+.”

Arrow Electronics’ power technology portfolio has expanded
with the signing of a distribution agreement with Recom, a
leading global supplier of DC/DC and AC/DC converters.
Under the terms of the agreement, Arrow will sell and support
Recom’s complete power converter product range throughout
Europe. The agreement supports Arrow’s strategy to provide the
widest possible range of power supply and converter technologies
to designers across Europe.
For Recom, the agreement will expand the penetration of its
product ranges into European markets and ensure that customers
have access to products and support at a local level.
Available in single, dual and triple rail outputs and a wide variety
of input and output voltage configurations, power ratings and
isolation voltages, Recom converters are used in most industries
requiring low- to medium-power voltage conversion in the 0.25W
to 60W range. The company also offers the largest range of safety-
agency approved converters from any manufacturer.
“Recom is aligning itself with one of the top electronic components
distributors in the world; its large base of customers will drive our
expansion into the European market,” comments Paul Cheesman,
business development manager at Recom.
“The agreement with Recom adds innovative products and
technology to our product range and demonstrates our commitment
to meeting the power requirements of customers throughout
Europe,” said Steve Sessions, power supplies marketing manager
at Arrow UK.
