Navarro Networks, Inc., was a developer of Ethernet-based ASIC components based in Plano, Texas, in the United States. They produced a network processor for Ethernet and other applications.[1]

Navarro Networks was founded in 2000. Their CEO was Mark Bluhm, who was formerly a vice president at Cyrix. A group of nine employees left the Cyrix division of Via on March 21, 2000 to staff the company.[2] The employee walkout had occurred just a day after Via announced that they would be spinning off the Cyrix division as a separate company.[3]

Cisco Systems announced their intent to acquire Navarro Networks in May 1, 2002; on the same day, Cisco also announced their bid to acquire Hammerhead Networks.[4] The acquisition was completed in June that year, with Cisco dealing Navarro a stock swap worth $85 million. Most of the 25 employees of Navarro joined the Internet Systems Business Unit to enhance Cisco's internal ASIC capability in Ethernet switching platforms.[5][6]
