LVL7 Systems, a provider of merchant IP software for Layer 2, 3 and 4 enterprise, access, wireless and Metro Ethernet products announced yesterday that it has secured $15.8 million in series B funding.
According to the company, the funding was led by Carlyle Venture Partners. The financing round included previous investors Gabriel Ventures Partners, H.I.G. Ventures and Research Triangle Ventures.
The company reports that it will use the funds to support the growth of its enterprise, access and metro merchant IP software business and to continue the development of advanced software features to address new market opportunities.
Since its September 2002 initial funding announcement, LVL7 said it has formed alliances with Ethernet silicon vendors and has integrated its FASTPATH software on Broadcom, Infineon, Intel, Marvell and SwitchCore technologies. The company recently announced a design win with Netgear, an enterprise-focused OEM that delivered a Layer 3 Gigabit Switch using LVL7's FASTPATH software solution.
FASTPATH is an embedded networking software architecture that features Layer 2 Switching, Layer 3 Routing and Layer 4+ applications and protocols. The third-generation architecture is designed to provide production-quality code required to build advanced networking infrastructure products. FASTPATH is also designed to run across multiple embedded operating systems including VxWorks and Linux and, according to the company, is integrated with network processors, coprocessors and networking ASICs.
"From the financial community viewpoint, this clear market opportunity for merchant networking software combined with LVL7's traction with Tier 1 OEMs has created investor demand," Philip Summe, general partner at Gabriel Venture Partners, said.
