Industry Quotes“The EZchip NP-3 is the leading NPU, with the 100-Gbit/s capable NP-4 close behind. The other 10-Gbit/s and 100-Gbit/s companies are significantly behind EZchip.” … “EZchip is the highest placed NPU vendor.”
- Simon Stanley, Heavy Reading Components Insider, April 2010 “The fastest growing of the top five suppliers, third-ranked EZchip has achieved profitability by focusing on 10Gbps and faster NPUs.”
- The Linley Group, Linley Wire, July 2010 “With respect to specific chip markets, NPUs are a bright spot… NPUs are continuing to replace ASICs and fixed-function ATM chips and even, after a decade, making inroads at major router vendors. We forecast NPU sales will top $400 million in 2010 and become one of the larger ASSP markets.”
“Network processors (NPU) have become a critical ingredient of carrier-equipment designs. These chips are appearing in new designs from leading OEMs spanning many applications from PON OLTs and Node Bs to carrier-Ethernet switch/routers.”
“Access infrastructure is migrating to Ethernet and IP backhaul, while data rates for both wireline and wireless networks continue to climb. These factors are driving the need for new access NPUs that are increasingly similar to metro-class NPUs.”
- The Linley Group, Linley Wire, January 2008 “EZchip customer and product momentum should propel the company to long term leadership in 10Gbps and faster NPUs.”
“When available, EZchip’s NPA-1 will stand out for Ethernet-only designs, with the most GbE ports complete with integrated serdes, the lowest memory cost, the lowest price, and the lowest power dissipation.”
- Bob Wheeler & Linley Gwennap, A Guide to Network Processors, January 2008 “Signs that EZchip is entrenching itself in nearly all the major box companies are accumulating.”
- Charlie Burger, Senior Technology Analyst, Gilder Technology Report, June 2006 “Of the 10Gbps vendors, EZchip is best positioned to capture future market share...The NP-2 has captured design wins in strategic platforms at Tier One OEMs. In our view, it is only a matter of time until these designs propel EZchip to profitability.”
- Bob Wheeler & Linley Gwennap, A Guide to Metro NPUs, December 2006 "...you should stick with EZchip, the network processor star with now going on 90 design wins." "Signs that EZ is entrenching itself in nearly all the major box companies are accumulating."
- George Gilder, The Gilder Report, June 2006 "Startup EZchip has established itself as the leading vendor of 10Gbps NPUs, focusing on metro and high-end enterprise applications."
"Of the 10Gbps and above vendors, EZchip is best positioned to capture future market share. The company's powerful and integrated NPUs have garnered more design wins than any other 10Gbps device."
- The Linley Group, A Guide to Network Processors, December 2005 "With the addition of the NP-2/5, EZchip now offers the best solutions for multi-GbE through 10GbE Metro designs."
- Bob Wheeler, senior analyst, June 2005 "We expect 10Gbps NPUs to comprise 30% of 2007 NPU revenue, and EZchip could capture half of this revenue... EZchip is best positioned to capture future market share. The company’s powerful and integrated NPU has garnered more design wins than any other 10Gbps device. Although 10Gbps NPU shipments were tiny in 2004, we expect them to grow rapidly over the next three years, driven by design wins being awarded in 2004 and 2005. As the technology leader, EZchip should capture the majority of this revenue. The company is also making the transition from startup to established vendor. EZchip has delivered multiple products, is generating revenue, and has money in the bank to fund continued product development. For all these reasons, EZchip is positioned to become a segment leader."
- The Linley Group, A Guide to Network Processors, November 2004 "We congratulate EZchip on completing the LinleyBench benchmark, including the most difficult options. This certification proves that NP-1c can operate at 10Gbps wire speed under demanding real-world conditions, including Layer 4 classification and large route tables with high update rates. No other 10Gbps NPU has taken on this challenge."
- Linley Gwennap, founder and principal analyst, The Linley Group, May 2004
