ane Electronics will be exhibiting at this year’s Electronics Live exhibition being held at the National Conference Centre in Birmingham on 22nd January 2025, 10am-
4pm. This free-to-attend show is dedicated to showcasing the latest technology in the electronic components supply chain. On display will be Lane Electronics’ wide range of high reliability connectors and connector accessories used by many industry sectors including defence, avionics, motorsport, marine, communications, medical, test and measurement, industrial and geophysical. Lane Electronics is a market-leading franchised distributor for many of the industry’s major electrical, electronic and optical connector manufacturers including EATON Souriau, CINCH Fibreco, HUBER+SUHNER, HellermannTyton, Positronic, Nicomatic, Weald Electronics and LEMO. Practically all connector types are available from Lane Electronics including multi-pin circular, high-power circular, data-circular,
filtered, fibre-optic, RF / coaxial, D-sub miniature, multi-pin rectangular and PCB connectors as well as adaptors and connectors for rack and panel applications. Lane Electronics is also franchised to assemble connectors to customer specific requirements. Lane Electronics hold extensive stock with thousands of products available to be purchased 24/7 from their easy-to-use online store, which also provides designers and buyers with valuable resources such as online stock checks and purchases, 3D models, manufacturer cross-references and comprehensive PDF catalogue downloads. Next day delivery is available on more than 90 per cent of standard products while non-standard product requirements, such as specialist military, industrial and motorsport circular connectors, are supported with rapid in-house development, assembly and testing on lead times which are generally much quicker than those offered by other connector suppliers.
Established for over 50 years, Lane
Electronics say that they have always had the strongest commitment to quality, reliability and traceability procedures and hold a significant number of key approvals including IECQ – CECC, ISO and QPL. Their Quality Management System is approved to ISO
9001:2015 (FM588537) for manufacturing, test, assembly and component stockholding, and EN 9120:2018, equivalent to AS 9120A (RS00100) for Distribution.
