San Jose-based company announces complete 100G-to-800G switch portfolio with 50% cost savings across all speeds, challenging industry giants with production-ready timeline
SAN JOSE, Calif. - Californer -- TORmem Inc., a pioneering self-funded startup specializing in memory disaggregation solutions for data centers, today announced an ambitious high-speed networking roadmap that promises to reshape the enterprise switching market. The company unveiled its complete portfolio spanning 100G switches available immediately, 200G and 400G switches entering production in Q4 2025, and 800G switches currently under development – all at 50% less cost than established industry leaders.
Revolutionary Roadmap Challenges Industry Status Quo
TORmem's comprehensive networking strategy represents the most aggressive challenge to traditional networking vendors in years, offering enterprise customers a complete upgrade path at unprecedented price points:
- 100G switches – Available now at $7,000 (vs. $14,000+ industry standard)
- 200G/400G switches – Production ready Q4 2025 at projected 50% cost savings
- 800G switches – Under active development for future market leadership
"We're not just launching a product – we're announcing the future of enterprise networking," said Thao Nguyen, Founder and CEO of TORmem. "While industry giants charge premium prices for incremental improvements, we're delivering breakthrough performance at half the cost across the entire high-speed spectrum."
Hardware Expertise Drives Innovation
Founded on the principle of "One Memory For All," TORmem has spent four years developing breakthrough memory disaggregation technology that enables In-Memory Computing (IMC) at data center scale. This deep hardware engineering expertise has now been applied to address another critical data center challenge: the high cost of enterprise networking infrastructure.
"Our years of building sophisticated memory disaggregation hardware gave us unique insights into what enterprise customers really need versus what they're paying for," said Thao Nguyen, Founder and CEO of TORmem. "We realized we could deliver the same performance as industry giants at a fraction of the cost by focusing on engineering excellence rather than premium pricing."

Complete High-Speed Networking Portfolio:
Immediate Availability (2025):
- 100G 32-port switches with Marvell ASIC technology
- SONiC pre-installation for open networking flexibility
- Enterprise-grade performance at $7,000 price point
"Our four years of hardware engineering experience building memory disaggregation solutions gave us unique insights into what customers actually need versus what they're forced to pay for," Nguyen explained. "We can deliver identical performance at half the cost because we're focused on engineering excellence, not premium pricing strategies."
Market Timing and Strategic Advantage
"By 2026, the market will demand 200G and 400G solutions at scale," noted Nguyen. "Traditional vendors will likely price these at $25,000-$40,000 or more. We're positioned to offer the same performance at $12,000-$20,000, creating massive value for customers while building a sustainable business."
Industry analysts estimate the high-speed switching market will grow from $8+ billion in 2025 to over $15 billion by 2027, driven primarily by 200G+ adoption.
Self-Funded Innovation Model
Unlike venture-backed companies, TORmem's self-funded approach enables aggressive pricing without investor return pressures, allowing the company to pass genuine savings to customers while maintaining healthy margins.
"Being self-funded means we can focus on what customers actually need rather than what VCs want to see," Nguyen stated. "We're not inflating prices to meet unrealistic return expectations – we're building sustainable value for both customers and shareholders."
Market Opportunity and Customer Impact
The global data center networking market, valued at over $20 billion annually, faces a critical transition period as organizations require higher bandwidth for AI/ML workloads, real-time analytics, and cloud-native applications. TORmem's complete portfolio positions the company to capture significant market share across all high-speed segments.
Target customers include:
- Hyperscale cloud providers -- seeking cost-effective infrastructure scaling
More on The Californer
- Financial services firms -- requiring ultra-high-performance networking for trading systems
- AI/ML companies -- needing bandwidth for distributed computing workloads
- Enterprise data centers -- planning major infrastructure modernization
"Traditional networking vendors have created an artificial scarcity model with premium pricing," Nguyen observed. "We're proving that enterprise-grade performance doesn't require enterprise-premium pricing."
Integrated Memory and Networking Vision
"The convergence of memory disaggregation technologies and networking represents the next frontier in data center efficiency," Nguyen explained. "Our customers will benefit from both cost-effective networking today and transformational memory solutions tomorrow – a combination no traditional vendor can match."
Immediate Availability and Industry Response
TORmem's 100G switches are available for immediate purchase, with the company actively seeking pilot customers and strategic partnerships to demonstrate production capabilities ahead of the 200G/400G launches.
"The market response validates our thesis," Nguyen concluded. "Customers are ready for a new approach to enterprise networking – one that delivers premium performance without premium pricing across the entire speed spectrum."
