Mellanox Technologies Completes Acquisition of IPtronics A/S

By R&D Editors | July 8, 2013

 

High-speed analog transceiver technology completes optical interconnect portfolio and enables next-generation, end-to-end 100Gb/s interconnect solutions

SUNNYVALE, CA & YOKNEAM, Israel– Mellanox Technologies a supplier of end-to-end interconnect solutions for servers and storage systems, has announced that it completed the acquisition of privately held IPtronics A/S, a leader in optical interconnect component design for digital communications, at a total cash purchase price of $47.5 million, subject to certain working capital and other adjustments.

The transaction enhances Mellanox’s ability to deliver complete end-to-end optical interconnect solutions at 100Gb/s and beyond, and is expected to increase Mellanox’s competiveness and position as a leading provider of high-performance, end-to-end interconnect solutions for servers and storage systems.

IPtronics’ current location in Roskilde, Denmark, will serve as Mellanox’s first R&D center in Europe. Mellanox expects to expand its customer support presence within Europe from this location.

“Our acquisition of IPtronics further solidifies our strategy to provide full end-to-end solutions for the server and storage interconnect. Together, we expect to continue to offer faster interconnect solutions at 100Gb/s and beyond, with higher density and lower power at a lower cost,” said Eyal Waldman, president and CEO of Mellanox Technologies. “I look forward to the opportunities this union brings. We welcome the IPtronics employees into the Mellanox family and their expected contribution to Mellanox’s continued growth.”

As a result of the transaction, IPtronics A/S will operate as a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Mellanox Technologies, Ltd.
