Rohde & Schwarz intensifies cooperation with HUBER+SUHNER

The Rohde & Schwarz electronics group has signed a comprehensive global procurement agreement with HUBER+SUHNER AG, a leading global manufacturer of connectivity solutions for radio frequency, fiber optics and low frequency technologies.

The global framework agreement ensures the support of HUBER+SUHNER for optimal worldwide components supplies and technical consultation. At the same time, it stabilizes the status of HUBER+SUHNER as a preferred supplier and lays the foundation for continuing and enhancing an intensive working relationship.

In this regard, global agreements are important steps for cooperation as equals.”
