Silicom Ltd. SD-WAN and Edge Networking – What matters and what sets it apart?

Marbella 1U – Server-level performance, with AI capabilities as an option. Marbella is a high-end Universal CPE (uCPE) platform based on Intel Xeon D-1700 (available in 4, 8, or 10-core variants) – ideal for demanding use cases such as SD-WAN, SASE, SSE, IoT Edge, and 5G DU. It supports up to 256 GB DDR4, two PCIe NVMe slots, multiple network interfaces (SFP28, SFP+, RJ45), additional AC/DC power options, and redundancy. Flexible expansion options – including LTE/5G, PoE, PCIe (x16/x8), and BMC for remote management – make it an exceptionally scalable solution. Rackable.

Ibiza 1U – Compact uCPE with PoE as standard (AI cards optional). Ibiza is a small but powerful SD-WAN/SD-Branch platform built on Intel Atom x7000. It supports 2–8 cores, up to 32 GB LPDDR5 with ECC, PoE++ on 2.5 Gb/s ports (up to 60 W/port), Wi-Fi 6, and expansion slots for LTE/5G. It also enables AI inference (optional) thanks to integrated Intel UHD graphics and GPU, and provides remote management via optional LOM. Ibiza is a great fit where flexible yet compact networking solutions are required.

Cordoba – Versatile desktop uCPE for FWA and SD-WAN. Cordoba is based on Intel Atom C3000 and delivers powerful features in a compact form. It is ideal for Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), SASE, and WAN-Edge gateway deployments. It supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6, 2.5 GbE interfaces, and includes a built-in IPSec engine with QAT acceleration, TPM, and Root of Trust for secure boot. This ensures high throughput and strong security in a compact desktop CPE device.

Madrid – Flexible desktop or 1U platform for 5G FWA. Madrid is a versatile uCPE based on Intel Atom C3000, available in both desktop and 1U rackmount form factors. It is an affordable and resilient solution for 5G FWA, small offices, and retail environments. It supports up to 8× 1 GbE ports, dual 5G modems (plus 4G), dual-band Wi-Fi, and thanks to its fanless, sealed design, it is resistant to dust and moisture.

Valencia – Affordable and compact Atom-based edge appliance. Valencia is a cost-effective, compact desktop Edge appliance powered by Intel Atom C1100 series (2-, 4-, or 8-core). Designed for SD-WAN, SASE, SSE, IoT, and edge analytics, it supports 4× 2.5 GbE RJ45 ports, optional 10 GbE SFP+, PoE++, dual 4G/5G cards, and Wi-Fi 6/e. Storage includes UFS SSD, eMMC, or NVMe; plus it’s expandable with AI acceleration cards. Security features include TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, and hardware Root of Trust.

There are many more new platforms coming up as e.g. rugged series and networking switches for Data Center networking.
