DF Solutions Ltd, a leading UK manufacturer of Multiroom Media Servers, was delighted to announce at the recent Cedia Expo that it has signed AWE to act as their exclusive distributor for the CI market for their range of Media Servers.

“The DF Solutions deal is great news for the CI sector and just what our customers have been waiting for” according to AWE’s Managing Director Stuart Tickle. “DF Solutions is a highly innovative, privately owned UK brand offering media server products with a high level of functionality, performance and value with one of the best interfaces we have seen. This new relationship allows the CI market fast access to the product range, supported by a solid marketing strategy, ensuring first class technical support and a good margin for installers.”

“I am delighted to have agreed this new and exclusive distribution agreement,” adds Jon Alway, Sales Director of DF Solutions. “AWE was the obvious choice. Whilst we will focus our in house resources on existing accounts and the international market, AWE will offer our products to a wider group of CI installers who are better served by a distributor that is a total solution provider. Our performance led products are ideally suited to the AWE portfolio of premium products and control systems and we are particularly impressed by the high standard of technical support and customer care that AWE offer to their dealers. We look forward to the brand awareness of our products growing with AWE’s marketing prowess and working closely with them over the years to come.”

Effective from 1st July 2009 and revealed to the industry at the recent Cedia Expo, the distribution agreement will allow AWE’s Ci clients access to all DF Solutions products (The Base Media Server & Link Client), whilst DF Solutions existing authorised dealers will continue to receive support and product directly.
