If thequestIonIs connectors, the answer Is yes
Epitomising the ethos nurtured over its forty-six year connector manufacturing history, EDAC states its slogan ‘We Like To Say Yes’ reflects an attitude that shouts service and infers that, where a certain indifference might exist within some connector companies, at EDAC the people take delight in offering customers exactly what they want.
Five examples explain what thismeans in practical terms? Firstly, EDAC offers customand non-standard connectors and
cable assemblies at Far-East prices but withmodestMOQs. Secondly, reacting to a desperate phone call on a Friday for just
400 bespoke card-edge connectors (a purchasing oversight that threatened to stop production in five days), EDAC ran its China plant over the weekend and delivered themto their overnight courier onMondaymorning.
Thirdly, supporting its distributor FAE teams by project-managing
customer queries and design concepts and seeing themthrough the drawing,modelling, sampling, prototyping and production
stages. Thus, the distributor gets anothermember of staff: free.
EDAC’s range includes card edge and rack/panel connectors, plus standard and variant I/O parts including IP67 waterproof, RJ45, USB 3.0, D-Sub and cable assemblies
To avoid allocations and shortages, EDAC is currently
running with typical five to six week lead-times, sometimes three to four weeks. There are no factories closed ormothballed.
Finally, EDAC provides cost-down alternative sources for existing
connectors. EDAC’s roots are in card edge and rack & panel connectors. Add
standard and variant I/O parts, including IP67 waterproof, RJ45, USB 3.0 and D-Sub, plus cable assemblies inmultiple formats, and you have the EDAC of today. EDAC states that above all you have people that remember what real servicemeans and who get a buzz fromsupporting and solving problems for people.
