(NASDAQ:MLNX), a leading supplier of high-performance, end-to-end smart interconnect solutions for data center servers and storage systems, announced today that its Ethernet solutions, including Spectrum switches, ConnectX-5 network cards and the LinkX family of cables were selected by the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE) for all of its communications infrastructures, from the commercial network to the enterprise network.

"The selection of Mellanox solutions enables us to achieve the best communication performance for the TASE infrastructure and will allow us to respond to developments in the capital market as well as to the technological challenges expected in the coming years," said Ittai Ben Zeev, CEO of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange. "The new infrastructure will enable the TASE to provide local and international capital market operators with advanced services, such as colocation services, similar to international standards."

"We are proud of our cooperation with the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange, and its choice of our Ethernet switches, network cards and cables for its computing and data center infrastructure. This choice highlights the technological advantage, product robustness and competitive advantage that we allow our customers," said Eyal Waldman, president and CEO of Mellanox Technologies. "Using Mellanox products enables leading global companies and organizations to take advantage of data transfer speeds of 25, 50 and 100 gigabit per second and extremely low data latency, therefore maximizing the performance of their information and storage systems. We look forward to continuing our cooperation with the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange and developing new relationships with exchanges and financial institutions around the world."

Mellanox will supply the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange with Spectrum switches running Cumulus and Mellanox Onyx operating systems, and the Mellanox NEO™ management system.

Mellanox's ConnectX-5 network cards will provide the best communication access to the stock exchange servers. The use of built-in data acceleration technology in the adapter cards will enable the maximum return on investment for the TASE's data centers.

The choice by Eli Kars, the communication and hardware infrastructure manager, and the technical staff of the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange in Mellanox's advanced solutions was made primarily on the basis of technological leadership, which enables them to address both the immediate and future needs of the stock exchange.
