Outlook

Management reaffirmed its financial guidance for the full year of 2010.

Revenues for the full year of 2010 are expected in the range of $67 - 70 million, reflecting year over year revenue growth of 33 – 39%, with the second half of the year being seasonally stronger than the first half.

Management continues to expect full year gross margin to be in the range of 51-53%, similar to 2009, and continues to expect non-GAAP operating expenses between $38 - 39.5 million for 2010. The increase in operating expenses in 2010 compared with that of 2009, is to enable the Company to capitalize on the current and emerging market opportunities, as well as support the forecasted growth of both the InfiniBand and Ethernet-based product lines.

Management believes that the Company remains on track for non-GAAP operating profit by the fourth quarter of 2010.
