SILC Silicom Ltd

-  Full ramp-up forecast to reach $3M/year –

KFAR SAVA, Israel, March 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a leading provider of networking and data infrastructure solutions, today announced that an existing smart card customer, a US-based cyber security leader, has selected Silicom's latest Altera-based 400G FPGA Smart Card for its new network monitoring offering. The customer has placed a first order scheduled for delivery this year, and full ramp-up is expected to reach $3 million per year.

This Design Win represents the successful conclusion of many months of collaborative effort with the customer. Both teams worked closely to fine-tune the product's advanced features and performance, overcoming various challenges. This demonstrates the added value of Silicom's engineering talent, whom customers often view as an extension of their own R&D teams. Through the use of Silicom's PacketMover framework, which offers unparalleled simplicity in developing and integrating offload functions onto Silicom's FPGA cards, the customer was able to accelerate its go-to-market schedule.

"We are pleased that our next-gen FPGA smart card has been chosen by this cyber leader, confirming that our products are at the cutting edge of networking technology innovation," commented Liron Eizenman, Silicom's CEO. "As a 'full-service' supplier, we have worked closely with the customer to meet feature-set and performance requirements, and will deliver them as a complete solution, fully integrated and tested within a server."

Mr. Eizenman continued, "This Win demonstrates once again the importance of the 'full package' that we offer: a uniquely broad product line based on advanced technology, hands-on collaboration with the customer, and a rapid development and delivery capability. It adds to the Design Win momentum that we have been building in line with our strategic plan, further increasing the visibility of our long-term revenue goals. Multi-year deals and relationships such as these confirm that we are on a path that will create substantial value for our shareholders over the long term."
