![]() Mellanox Surpasses 100,000 InfiniBand Port Sales Milestone Data Center, Storage, High Performance Computing and Embedded Markets Driving Demand for 10Gb/sec Technology SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA and YOKNEAM, ISRAEL, July 29, 2003 - Mellanox Technologies, Ltd., the leading provider of InfiniBandTM silicon, announced today that as of June 2003 more than 100,000 InfiniBand ports have been shipped to customers for a broad range of InfiniBand based applications. This milestone comes just 6 months after Mellanox announced having exceeded the fifty thousand port shipment milestone. "We are encouraged by the strong, broad based demand for 10Gb/sec InfiniBand solutions from several significant markets and the momentum that Linux based InfiniBand clustering solutions are gaining in the market," said Dana Krelle, vice president of marketing for Mellanox Technologies. "The deployment of large clusters, production ramps of embedded and storage solutions, plus end-customer enterprise data center results are all demonstrating that InfiniBand is delivering lower cost, higher performance solutions." This continued growth is driven by many key accomplishments that have been achieved by Mellanox and the IBTA (InfiniBand Trade Association) community in the past six months. These include:
