Needham & Company maintains a 'Buy' on Mellanox Technologies (NASDAQ: MLNX) price target raised from $39 to $42.

Needham analyst says, "MLNX dominates InfiniBand (IB) based interconnect which has been a healthy niche market (~$300M, growing 8-10%), largely HPC oriented. Building on this solid base, MLNX has been broadening its solution portfolio (i.e. 10/40G Ethernet, acquiring Voltaire), expanding its TAM ($4.8B) and demonstrating traction in Enterprise verticals (FS, web2.0, database, cloud), embedded environments (i.e. Oracle (Nasdaq: ORCL) Exadata and Exalogic), and in enterprise storage (i.e. Isilon/EMC (NYSE: EMC) /IBM (NYSE: IBM) XIV)."

Needham raises FY12 EPS estimate from $1.43 to $1.48.
