Our media channels overwhelm US with stories about chip shortages, cyber attacks and ransomware, AI, IoT, distributed energy and microgrids, EVs, electrification, the Cloud, remote work, the theft of intellectual property, supply chain issues, climate change, resilience, the smart grid, the smart home, and smart everything else. Underlying, uniting, and energizing each of these issues is data. Is it any surprise that savvy electrical distributors are beefing up their data communications menu?
Brandon Twyman, datacomm division sales manager at Huntington, West Virginia-headquartered State Electric Supply, leads a team of 12 datacomm specialists. "State Electric has always been known throughout the region as an electrical company, and now we are intensifying our commitment to the datacomm sector, establishing an identity as datacomm experts too," he said.
