The catalog also features product expansions from Amphenol Sine Systems, Vishay, Eaton Cutler-Hammer and Powerware, Agilent Technologies, General Cable, Hirschmann/Lumberg Automation, AVX Corporation and International Rectifier.

　　“The 2010 Allied Catalog gives engineers access to a wide range of the latest innovative technologies at their fingertips,” said Lee Davidson, president of Allied. “Engineers can utilize the new Allied catalog to research all their electronic component solutions and serve as the best desktop tool to accompany the Allied web site.”

　　The Allied Catalog also meets Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI) certification. All paper used in the catalog was obtained from the SFI program, which integrates the perpetual growing and harvesting of trees with the protection of wildlife, plants, soil, water and air quality.
