Xsight Labs Announces Availability of E1 – Revolutionizing the DPU Market with the Industry's Unparalleled Fully Software-Defined Network Architecture
Article content
SAN JOSE, Calif & TEL AVIV, Israel — Xsight Labs, a leading fabless semiconductor company providing end-to-end connectivity for next-generation hyperscale, edge and AI data center networks, today announced availability of its Arm®-based E1-SoC for cloud and edge AI data centers. The E-Series is the only product of its kind to provide full control plane and data path programmability and is the industry's highest performance software-defined DPU (Data Processing Unit). Xsight Labs is taking orders now for its E1-SoC and the E1-Server, the first-to-market 800G DPU.
Article content
E1 is the first SoC in the E-Series, Xsight Labs' SDN (Software Defined Network) Infrastructure Processor product family of fully programmable network accelerators. Built on TSMC's advanced 5nm process technology, the E1-SoC will begin shipping to customers and ecosystem partners.
Article content
'We are truly excited with the progress we have made with the E1-SoC in such a short timeframe,' said Eric Vallone, Xsight Labs Vice President of Business Development. 'The performance we have seen since getting the E1 back from production is amazing. Given the unprecedented flexibility and performance the E1 delivers, we look forward to the opportunities that the E1 will create for our customers across a multitude of use cases.'
Article content
The E1-Server is both an end-system solution and a comprehensive product development platform comprised of a single rack-unit system and associated software. The E1‑Server allows prototyping and proof-of-concept activities for engineering and product development teams, or it can be immediately deployed as a high-performance, stand-alone Edge Server System.
Article content
The E1-Server ships with a full complement of software tools and applications supporting a wide variety of use cases. Use cases for the E1-Server include edge computing, public cloud, content service provider infrastructure, wireless infrastructure, AI factory front and back-end networking, as well as secure enterprise infrastructure.
Article content
The E1-SoC is perfect for developing compute, networking, security, storage, smart switch and air-cooled edge inference (accelerator or GPU appliances) in smaller form factors like a traditional PCIe® Adapter Card. The E1-Server can be used as a system development platform for OEMs, ODMs, and CSP engineering teams to create their own solutions. Developers can use the Xsight Labs' connectivity products for scaling out the E1-Server. Xsight Labs also offers the SDN programable X-Series Ultra Ethernet Consortium switching solutions as system or chip devices. The E1 and the X2 combine to allow Smart Switch and SDN all-layer (OSI L1 to L7) systems with 100% 112G SerDes connectivity offering the best-in-class processing and networking density per rack unit over all available silicon solutions.
Article content
'Xsight Labs is set to disrupt the DPU market with its innovative E-Series of software-defined, fully programmable network accelerators,' said Bob Wheeler, Principal Analyst, Wheeler's Network. 'Most existing DPUs started from legacy NIC designs resulting in constrained feature sets and proprietary software tools. The E1 breaks this paradigm as the first SoC of its kind to deliver the openness of an Arm server.'
Article content
The E1 is designed with the goal of achieving Arm SystemReady compliance, meaning operating systems will work out-of-the-box, expediting time to deployment and reducing cost of development.
Article content
'As data centers evolve to meet rising demands in performance, efficiency, and security in the age of AI, DPUs have become a critical enabler,' said Dong Wei, Standards Architect and Fellow, Arm. 'Built on the foundational compute of Arm Neoverse Compute Subsystems, Xsight Labs is setting new standards of performance with E1 while working toward SystemReady compliance and ensuring software interoperability.'

Why Broadcom Stock Slumped Today
Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO), the semiconductor company that's profited so much from the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution of late, saw its stock slump 3% through 10 a.m. ET this morning after reporting that it beat earnings last night... just barely. Heading into the company's fiscal second quarter of 2025, which ended May 4, analysts forecast Broadcom would earn $1.57 per share in adjusted profits on sales of just under $15 billion. In fact, Broadcom earned $1.58 per share, and its sales were $15 billion. Broadcom Q1 earnings Sales grew 20% year over year in Q2, setting a new quarterly record boosted by 46% year-over-year growth in revenue from AI chips. Adjusted earnings grew twice as fast, up 43%, but generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) earnings did even better, more than doubling to $1.03 per share. (So while GAAP profits weren't nearly as good as non-GAAP, at least they're growing faster.) On the other hand, Broadcom noted that its free cash flow (FCF) in Q2 was only $6.4 billion. And while that represented 44% year-over-year growth, in line with adjusted earnings growth, it was apparently less than the $7 billion FCF that analysts had hoped Broadcom would produce. This realization seems to be outweighing the news of the earnings beat, and depressing Broadcom stock today. Is Broadcom stock a buy? Should investors be worried about this? Not necessarily. While I'm not usually thrilled to see such a large gap between GAAP earnings and non-GAAP earnings, Broadcom's generating tremendous free cash flow -- $22.7 billion over the last 12 months, or nearly twice reported net income. The stock's valuation is high; its price-to-free-cash-flow ratio is 52.5. But Broadcom is growing FCF fast enough that I think the valuation might be justified -- and Broadcom stock could still be a buy. Should you invest $1,000 in Broadcom right now?
