Arrow Electronics has launched Capstone, a global business dedicated to interconnect, passives, and electromechanics (IP&E) products, solutions and services. By operating under a focused brand, Capstone gives customers more specialised support, from design-in through production.
According to the company, Capstone is designed to make IP&E easy to specify, source, and scale. Customers will gain the benefit of dedicated IP&E coverage, fast decision-making, and broad execution support across the full on-board and off-board electrical system.
Why was Capstone launched?
The launch of Capstone is part of a broader realignment of Arrow’s global components business, moving from a geography operating model to a technology operating model. The realignment builds on three distinct go-to-market motions for semiconductors, IP&E, and supply chain and engineering services. The new model allows each business to focus on specific technologies, helping drive growth for customers, suppliers and Arrow.

“IP&E is a foundational part of every electronic design, and specialisation helps customers and suppliers capture greater value,” said Jörg Strughold, chief growth officer, global IP&E and Capstone, Arrow Electronics. “Capstone is a dedicated business with a focused value proposition, giving IP&E even greater visibility and a definite market identity while remaining connected to Arrow’s semiconductor, engineering, digital, and supply chain capabilities.”
IP&E is embedded in Arrow’s strategic growth categories, including data centres, aerospace and defence, medical, industrial, transportation, consumer, and agriculture. High-growth applications include AI data centres, 800V architectures, edge processing, New Space, building security, and autonomous agriculture.
