Avnet Silica has expanded its distribution of Teltonika Networks products through an EMEA-wide master agreement announced on 26 October 2026. The deal covers industrial modems, routers, gateways, and Ethernet switches, along with Teltonika's Remote Management System (RMS). The development is an announced distribution expansion, not a new product; financial terms and stocking targets were not disclosed.
Why it matters
The agreement extends a five-year working relationship between the two companies into a region-wide arrangement, a pattern of industrial networking hardware moving through established electronics distributors rather than direct sales. It signals continued consolidation of connectivity hardware and management software into bundled distribution channels as industrial and IoT deployments grow.
The agreement covers Teltonika's networking portfolio, which supports Wi-Fi, LTE, and 5G connectivity across modems, routers, gateways, and Ethernet switches. No performance benchmarks or specifications were provided in the announcement.
The players
Avnet Silica
The electronics distributor, a subsidiary of Avnet, that supplies components and connectivity solutions including eUICC and secure cloud services to industrial customers.
Teltonika Networks
A Lithuania-based manufacturer of industrial routers, modems, gateways, and Ethernet switches, offering Wi-Fi, LTE, and 5G connectivity alongside its RMS management platform.
The details
Avnet Silica will pair Teltonika's networking hardware with its own technical support, antenna selection guidance, cellular connectivity services, eUICC solutions (embedded SIM chips that can be reprogrammed to change mobile operator), and secure cloud connections. Teltonika's Remote Management System (RMS) is included in the agreement; RMS is a platform that lets operators monitor and manage connected devices from a central interface. Together, the hardware and management layer are meant to let industrial customers deploy and supervise networked equipment without assembling those pieces separately.

The Tech Race
Industrial networking vendors are increasingly pairing hardware with centralised management platforms, and this agreement places Teltonika's RMS alongside distributor-led technical support in the same channel. The move follows a five-year Avnet Silica and Teltonika collaboration that now spans the full EMEA region.
Industrial customers across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa may find Teltonika's modems and routers easier to source through Avnet Silica's channel, which adds technical support and connectivity services. Availability timelines, pricing, and product introduction schedules have not been announced.
The takeaway
Watch for disclosed stocking targets or product introduction schedules that would show how deeply this regional channel will be built out. The next concrete signal will be whether Avnet Silica announces specific Teltonika product lines or regional inventory commitments in the coming months.
