Silicom Receives ~$3M Edge Product Order from Fast-Growing SASE Company

KFAR SAVA, Israel, Aug. 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SILC), a leading provider of networking and data infrastructure solutions, today announced that it has secured an initial ~$3 million order from a US-based provider of cloud-based SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) solutions. This fast-growing client will use Silicom's Edge platforms with minor customizations to provide both wired and wireless connectivity to its end-customers.

While the customer requested immediate delivery of the full order, the actual delivery schedule will be extended over the next quarters due to global shortages in needed components.

"The fact that this cloud cybersecurity leader has chosen our Edge products confirms their value for multiple markets ? well beyond SD-WAN alone, our first target market for this innovative technology," commented Liron Eizenman, Silicom's CEO.

"Our Edge products offer the exact functionality, features and cost that telcos, service providers, appliance vendors and cloud players need for their next-generation systems and applications: precise compute capabilities with the best cost/performance ratio, efficient networking, wired and/or wireless connectivity, optimized heat dissipation and power consumption, a minimal number of moving parts (or none altogether), easy installation, minimum maintenance, and more. This, coupled with our ability to deliver rapid customization, onboarding and ramp-up support, positions us ideally for SASE and the other markets that use Edge platforms, as demonstrated by the large and growing pipeline that we have built from a variety of significant Design Wins and opportunities."

Mr. Eizenman concluded, "As such, we now see that the total addressable market for our Edge products is much larger than we initially planned, and expect them to contribute significantly to our future growth."
