About PLX
PLX has been developing I/O interconnect devices since 1994 and is a public company on Nasdaq traded as stock symbol PLXT. Originally focused on PCI-based products, it was a natural progression for PLX to develop products based on PCI Express (PCIe). Most of our customers can either migrate their legacy systems to PCI Express, or today obtain a high-performance PCIe solution for their latest, leading-edge system designs.
With about 150 employees, PLX's annual revenue was over $82 million in 2007. Our corporate office is located in Sunnyvale, CA USA with
additional technical offices in China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea and the
United Kingdom.
