When it comes to storage, small and medium businesses have a lot in common with large enterprises. Just like the Fortune 400, they need to ensure that data is backed up, retrievable and secure, and that data access complies with governmental regulations. Unfortunately, if you are a small business owner you also cope with some challenges the big guys don't have, budgets are small and your IT staff, if you even have one, may not have storage-specific expertise.

Silicon Bandwidth Beams Up Series B Funding
February 12, 2002
By Bob Woods
Silicon Bandwidth Inc., a Fremont, Calif.-based fabless semiconductor company serving the optoelectronic and semiconductor interconnect markets, said it has raised $27.2 million in Series B venture funding.
The round was led by CIBC Capital Partners, and principal backer VantagePoint Venture Partners was joined by new investors GKM Ventures, Harbinger Ventures and Three-Five Systems Inc.
Combined with an initial investment round in early 2000, Silicon Bandwidth has raised more than $33 million since its founding. The company said it will use the funds to continue development of new customer-driven technologies and expand its foothold in the emerging interconnect market.
Silicon Bandwidth said it is pioneering a new category of fabless technologies that increase bandwidth and eliminate I/O bottlenecks across the entire circuit path for optical, semiconductor and subsystem products. The company's optical, Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCOS) and semiconductor interconnect families replace expensive substrate layers, draw less power, and offer higher levels of integration and automation than any type of interconnect available today. These patented solutions simultaneously solve bandwidth, thermal, size and cost constraints that dramatically leapfrog today's methods that have not been updated for more than 30 years, officials also said.
Silicon Bandwidth's products deliver maximum I/O density, high frequency performance, and superior thermal management without compromising electrical characteristics -- while at the same time offering reduced production costs for mass market applications, the company said.
In the last 24 months, Silicon Bandwidth said it has successfully shipped five new interconnect platforms to major companies in the microdisplay, biometric, optics and high-speed, high-density electronic industries including Fujitsu, Samsung SDI and Three-Five Systems. Currently, Silicon Bandwidth's product line includes Very Small Peripheral Array (VSPA), Cluster Grid Array (CGA), Welltech, Compass and OptoSpyder.
