Acal BFi is a pan-European technical distributor providing specialist design support, manufacturing and test services across a range of products which includes semiconductors, RF and wireless, frequency control, electromechanical, power management and board-level systems for the electronic and photonic markets. Under the new agreement, Acal BFi will offer a range of RSTA products to commercial security and surveillance OEM and integrators.
