Azlan gets closer to Proxim

Distributor set to help vendor gain greater footprint in Europe with deal

Written by Sara Yirrell

Azlan has signed a pan-European deal with Proxim Wireless to distribute its broadband wireless network technology.

Under the deal, Azlan, the networking arm of Computer 2000, will have access to Proxim's full range of Wireless LAN, Wi-Fi mesh, WiMAX and point-to-point backhaul offerings.

Lionel Chmilewsky, executive vice president of worldwide sales at Proxim Wireless, said: "This pan-European agreement with Azlan significantly heightens our profile within the networking VAR community in Europe and gives us access to a much larger potential market. The tremendous reach and exceptional logistical capabilities of Azlan is expected to help Proxim expand its business within these regions.”

Steve Cant, European business development director at Azlan EMEA, said: "The combination of Proxim’s high quality solutions and Azlan’s clear focus on channel development and business growth in key market categories is a powerful one for resellers. It provides them with access to an excellent range of products that have a strong appeal and potential to open up new opportunities in both the enterprise and SME sectors.”
