Tune in to Real Talk with Rob Tavi and Rochester Electronics Part 3/3 ft. Ken Greenwood as we dive into the world of counterfeit components and the ant-counterfeiting efforts in place to mitigate the risk of counterfeits entering electronics manufacturers supply chain. Discover how counterfeit components enter the market through not only open market sourcing, but also recycled or returned into authorized distributor supply chains and the organized efforts the industry takes to help reduce the impact. With an increased difficulty in detecting counterfeits, ISO/AS Quality Standards and Testing has enabled Authorized Distributors such as Rochester and IBS Electronics to more effectively support manufactures anti-counterfeiting efforts.
