FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SILICOM EXPANDS PRODUCT PORTFOLIO WITH
NEW LINE OF STANDALONE BYPASS SOLUTIONS

– Agreement With Giant Korean Manufacturer Already in Place –

– 1st Design Win Including a State of the Art 10Gbps Version Secured With
US-Based Appliances Manufacturer –

        KFAR SAVA, Israel, September 4, 2007 – Silicom Ltd. (NASDAQ & TASE: SILC) today announced its latest innovation for the Network Appliance market: a new line of Standalone BYPASS cards and modules. Different than Silicom’s existing BYPASS adapters, the new products offer full BYPASS functionality (the ability to reroute traffic automatically around an appliance malfunction) in a ready-for-integration add-on card or module with no extra communication ports. As such, the Standalone new products can be easily integrated into Security or WAN Optimization appliances with sufficient pre-existing communication capabilities or designed into appliance motherboards.

        Some of the products within the new line offer full support of the emerging 10Gbps standard, making them among the highest performance connectivity products in the industry.

        Silicom developed the first product within the new line as part of an agreement with one of Korea’s largest manufacturers. In addition, the Company has secured its first Design Win and an initial order for three types of Fiber Bypass modules, including modules supporting 10Gbps connectivity, from a leading manufacturer of network appliances.

        “The innovative feature set of this new product line take us another step towards our goal of becoming a ‘one-stop shop’ for best-in-breed appliance connectivity solutions,” said Mr. Shaike Orbach, President and CEO of Silicom. “As the industry becomes more experienced with network appliances, demand is growing for more specialized functionality and higher connectivity speeds, and with it, the need for new solutions. Our proven ability to provide targeted, high-performance solutions – first through our Multiport Gigabit Ethernet lines and later with our Multiport Bypass products – has established Silicom as the clear leader of this growing niche. This new line addresses the needs of new market segments, and therefore expands our total revenue potential.”



        Mr. Orbach concluded, “For the future, we intend to continue leveraging our primary assets: our proprietary technology and know-how in the connectivity field, and the penetration that we have achieved into many of the industry’s major players. With an ‘ear to the ground,’ we will continue identifying this dynamic industry’s unmet connectivity challenges, and addressing them with the market’s most innovative solutions.”
