Silicom Ltd. (News - Alert) (NASDAQ:SILC) (TASE:SILC) today announced that it has received another Design Win for its Switched SETAC solution, a strategic new cloud and data center platform designed to save space, energy and costs in cloud and data center services while improving system performance. The client, a leading European provider of DPI solutions for Monitoring, Lawful Interception and Cyber Security, has selected the accelerated version of the Switched SETAC solution, and has already placed initial purchase orders totaling $250,000. Silicom estimates that its future sales to this customer will ramp to approximately $1 million per year.

The Accelerated Switched SETAC is a unique product that adds Network Processor (News - Alert) acceleration to the many additional features and benefits of the Silicom Switched SETAC, including its use of standard motherboards, integration of switching, filtering and load-balancing, and its potential to support emerging SDN/NFV protocols.
