Global Networking and Security-As-A-Service
Provider Standardizes on Silicom's Next-Gen
Edge Devices
- Current Design Win expected to reach $3-$4M/yr at full run rate,
leading to additional significant Design Wins in the future -
KFAR SAVA, Israel – December 11, 2024
- Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a
leading provider of networking and data infrastructure solutions, today announced that a global networking and security-as-a-service leader has awarded Silicom a first Design Win and standardized on Silicom Edge devices for all of its Edge
deployment scenarios. This makes Silicom the customer’s sole Edge Networking hardware provider, paving the way for additional Design Wins that could add multiple millions to the Company’s annual sales.
This Design Win represents the successful conclusion of a process which began a year ago, when the networking giant initiated
discussions about one of Silicom’s products. Over time, the discussions expanded to more products and use cases, leading to this significant Design Win with the potential for additional Design Wins in the future.
This first Design Win encompasses several products, including several of Silicom’s newest Edge Networking solutions pre-integrated
with Silicom's Network Interface Cards. The fact that Silicom can address all of the Edge Networking needs of this vast customer confirms the value of our broad portfolio and the strength of our offerings. Initial deliveries are expected to begin
in the second half of 2025, with revenues related to this first win ramping to $3-$4 million per year in 2026 and beyond.
“The relationship we have built with this networking leader, with initial discussions leading step by step to their standardization on
our products and the potential for future collaborations, confirms that our renewed sales strategy is working,” commented Liron Eizenman, Silicom’s CEO. “It shows the value of the range of our products, the innovation of our concepts, and the
rock-solid reliability of our delivery.
“Relationships such as these, based on deep trust and slow-but-steady growth, are the platform of our Strategic Plan. They are helping
us build a strong base of recurring revenues and a fertile opportunity pipeline that will serve as a platform for continuous growth in our revenues and profits, creating significant value for our shareholders.”
