New partnership gives South African engineers local access to Puzhi’s FPGA, RFSoC, Software Defined Radio and high-performance embedded computing solutions.
South Africa – August 2026 – Rfiber Solutions is pleased to announce its appointment as an official authorised sales channel for Puzhi Electronic Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd in South Africa, further strengthening the company’s growing portfolio of international RF, electronic and embedded computing technologies.
Under the formal authorisation from Puzhi Electronic Technology, Rfiber Solutions has been granted the non-exclusive right to represent Puzhi and distribute, market and sell the company’s products and solutions throughout South Africa.
The authorisation became effective on 27 March 2026.
For Rfiber Solutions, the appointment represents another important step in its mission to connect South African engineers and technology companies with innovative international manufacturers and specialist technologies.
Bringing Advanced FPGA and SDR Technology to South Africa
Modern RF and electronic systems increasingly depend on the combination of high-performance digital processing and sophisticated RF front ends.
Applications ranging from software-defined radio and radar signal processing to wireless communications, machine vision, industrial control and artificial intelligence require platforms capable of acquiring, processing and moving enormous quantities of data in real time.
This is where the addition of Puzhi to the Rfiber Solutions portfolio becomes particularly exciting.
Puzhi specialises in SDR, ARM and FPGA technologies, providing core boards/System-on-Modules (SoMs), development platforms, Software Defined Radio systems, FMC modules and associated hardware.
Through the new partnership, South African engineers can access these technologies through Rfiber Solutions, providing a local channel for product enquiries, sourcing and sales support.
About Puzhi Electronic Technology
Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Shanghai’s Pudong New Area, Puzhi Electronic Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd focuses on SDR, ARM and FPGA core boards, development boards and customised solutions.
The company’s products are currently exported to more than 60 countries, with Puzhi reporting that more than 65% of its workforce is dedicated to R&D.
Puzhi has developed an extensive hardware portfolio aimed at engineers working on high-performance embedded processing and RF applications.
FPGA System-on-Modules and Core Boards
Puzhi offers an extensive selection of FPGA SoMs and core boards based on several major FPGA families.
Its AMD-based portfolio includes platforms built around:
- Zynq-7000 SoC
- Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC
- Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC
- Artix-7 and Artix UltraScale+
- Kintex-7, Kintex UltraScale and Kintex UltraScale+
- Virtex-7 and Virtex UltraScale+
These compact processing modules provide engineers with a foundation for developing high-performance embedded systems without having to design the complete FPGA processing platform from the ground up.
Puzhi also offers FPGA SoMs and development platforms based on Chinese FPGA technologies, including solutions using Fudan Micro devices.
FPGA Development Boards
Complementing its SoM portfolio, Puzhi provides a broad range of FPGA development boards.
These platforms allow engineering teams to evaluate FPGA and SoC technologies, develop and validate firmware, prototype systems and accelerate the transition from concept to working hardware.
The range extends from Zynq-7000 platforms through to powerful Zynq UltraScale+, Kintex, Virtex and RFSoC-based development systems.
For engineering teams working on complex processing applications, these platforms can significantly shorten development cycles by providing proven hardware on which software, FPGA logic and system architectures can be developed and tested.
Software Defined Radio Solutions
One of the most relevant areas of the Puzhi portfolio for Rfiber Solutions’ RF engineering customers is Software Defined Radio (SDR).
Puzhi offers an extensive PZSDR portfolio combining FPGA/SoC processing with RF transceiver technologies.
Examples include platforms combining Zynq devices with AD9361 and AD9363 RF transceivers, as well as higher-performance systems incorporating devices such as ADRV9009.
The portfolio also includes systems based on AMD Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC, which integrate high-performance processing and RF data-converter capabilities into powerful platforms for advanced RF development.
These technologies provide engineers with flexible development platforms for applications such as:
- Wireless communications
- Software Defined Radio research
- Radar and signal processing
- Spectrum monitoring
- Digital communications
- RF experimentation
- High-speed signal acquisition
- Algorithm development and validation
Puzhi’s current SDR portfolio includes products ranging from compact development platforms such as the P201Pro/P203Pro through to more advanced systems including the P159, which combines a Zynq UltraScale+ device with an ADRV9009 RF transceiver, and RFSoC-based development platforms.
FMC and Expansion Modules
Puzhi also offers a range of FMC cards and expansion modules designed to extend FPGA development platforms with additional data acquisition, communications and interface capabilities.
The company’s FMC portfolio includes a variety of modules intended to support high-speed FPGA development and specialised system configurations.
Expansion modules, transceiver modules, connectors, heatsink kits and other accessories are also available, allowing engineers to configure development environments around specific application requirements.
Custom Engineering Services
In addition to standard hardware, Puzhi provides customised development services.
Its stated customisation capabilities cover:
- Software Defined Radio
- Hardware circuit design
- FPGA logic design
- Linux low-level drivers
- Embedded software
- AI algorithms
This means the relationship has the potential to provide South African engineering teams with more than access to off-the-shelf development hardware.
Where specialised requirements exist, customers may also be able to work through Rfiber Solutions to explore Puzhi’s engineering and customisation capabilities.
Applications Across Multiple Engineering Industries
The flexibility of FPGA, RFSoC and Software Defined Radio technologies makes the Puzhi portfolio applicable across a broad range of engineering disciplines.
Puzhi identifies applications including:
Wireless Communications
FPGA and SDR platforms provide powerful development environments for communications research, RF prototyping and advanced wireless systems.
Machine Vision and Image Processing
High-speed FPGA processing makes these platforms suitable for applications requiring low-latency processing of large volumes of imaging data.
Industrial Control
FPGA-based systems can provide deterministic, high-speed processing for sophisticated industrial automation and control applications.
Artificial Intelligence
FPGA and heterogeneous processing architectures can support specialised AI and edge-computing workloads where performance, latency and power efficiency are important.
Power Monitoring
High-speed data acquisition and processing capabilities can be applied to sophisticated monitoring, measurement and control systems.
Medical Equipment
FPGA-based processing platforms can also support specialised medical and instrumentation applications requiring high-speed acquisition and real-time processing.
For Rfiber Solutions’ existing RF customer base, the combination of RFSoC, SDR and FPGA technology is particularly relevant to applications such as radar, communications, spectrum analysis, RF test systems and advanced signal processing.
A Natural Extension of the Rfiber Solutions Portfolio
The addition of Puzhi represents a natural extension of Rfiber Solutions’ existing RF, microwave and electronic technology portfolio.
RF systems increasingly extend far beyond the analogue RF front end.
Modern radar, communications and electronic systems combine antennas, amplifiers, filters and RF components with extremely sophisticated digital signal processing, data conversion and embedded computing.
By adding Puzhi’s FPGA, RFSoC and SDR technologies to its offering, Rfiber Solutions can support customers across a broader portion of that engineering architecture.
An engineer developing an advanced RF system may now be able to approach Rfiber not only for specialist RF and microwave components, but also for the FPGA processing, RFSoC, Software Defined Radio and development hardware required further into the system.
