Mouser publishes virtual catalog
December 10, 2009 – Mouser Electronics announced a virtual catalog. Customers can browse, search, and buy products without ever leaving the e-catalog. Mouser’s e-catalog customers can see product availability, extended prices, detailed specifications, and alternative images - all while in the e-catalog application. The new catalog is available from the top right corner of the Mouser homepage.

One of the core design elements of Mouser’s e-catalog is the ability to swap easily between the e-catalog and the traditional Web site. Other features include:

  • View product availability and specifications without leaving the e-catalog
  • Order products directly from the e-catalog
  • Search catalog by keyword or part number
  • Browse product taxonomy in 11 languages
  • Customer assigned bookmarks for up to 100 pages

    The web site development team at Mouser spent months perfecting this integrated tool, to help customers easily navigate Mouser’s massive product catalog. Mouser’s e-catalog is the first to employ Microsoft Silverlight to fully integrate a paper catalog experience with rich internet content.

    Shumate said Mouser chose Silverlight because of its flexibility, scalability, and its cross-browser support running on Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows machines. “The platform’s ability to seamlessly integrate high-performance web services allows us to add products as they are ready and bring real-time product information to the page. Mouser’s e-catalog can be accessed by anyone who downloads the free Silverlight plug-in for IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox, Safari, Opera, or Chrome,” said Shumate.
