"SiBEAM's 60GHz Radio Frequency (RF) technology complements our HD connectivity portfolio by adding WirelessHD-compliant semiconductor products that deliver the highest throughput of any mass market wireless solution available today."

As a result of the acquisition, Silicon Image's headcount will increase by approximately 50 people to a total worldwide headcount of approximately 500 employees. SiBEAM's high-speed wireless communication products will be integrated into Silicon Image's newly formed Wireless Division, headed by John LeMoncheck, former president and chief executive officer of SiBEAM and Silicon Image's new vice president and general manager, Wireless Division, reporting to Mr. Martino.
