History

1979–1999

Emulex was founded in 1979 by Fred B. Cox "as a supplier of data storage products and data communications equipment for the computer industry."[5] By 1983, Emulex was able to advertise its products as if it were grocery items: a 2-page spread headlined "One stop shopping for VAX users? Emulex, of course" showed 3 paper bags, each with the Emulex name and logo and each holding a large computer board. One bag also said, "Disk Controllers" while the second bag said, "Communication Controllers;" the third said "Tape Controllers."[6]

In 1992, Emulex spun off what became QLogic.[7]

Much of Emulex's early market was for Digital Equipment Corporation's VAX and PDP-11 systems.[8] Computer History Museum's collections include an Emulex disk drive.[9]

2000 to present

Headquartered in Costa Mesa, California, Emulex employed more than 1,200 people in 2013. In 2000, Emulex acquired Giganet for $645 million,[10] and in 2013, it acquired Endace, based in New Zealand. On April 21, 2009, Broadcom made a proposal to the Emulex board of directors to buy all existing shares of Emulex for $764 million, or $9.25 per share, a 40% premium over the stock's closing price on April 20, 2009.[11][12] After Emulex's board of directors recommended against the sale, Broadcom increased their offer to $11 per share on June 30, which valued the company at $925 million.[13] On July 9, 2009, it too was rejected[14] Broadcom subsequently withdrew its offer.[15]

In February 2015, Avago Technologies Limited announced it would acquire Emulex for $8 per share, in cash.[16] Avago, a spinoff of Hewlett Packard, merged with Broadcom in May of that year.[17][18] Avago assumed the Broadcom name.[16][19]
