With quick response times, they enable efficient voice command processing, steady visuals through Electronic Image Stabilization, and clear 2K video quality. Additionally, they offer AI-powered image recognition and real-time translation for a smooth, AI-enhanced digital experience anytime, anywhere.
Wi-Fi 7, Wi-Fi Location Technology, Multi-Link Operation Technology
Realtek offers a complete range of Wi-Fi products to meet various customer needs. Their Wi-Fi 7 technology improves wireless signal quality and increases network coverage. It also includes Wi-Fi location features that allow users to measure distances accurately within 1 meter. This feature can help businesses, like automatically connecting to a monitor when near a compatible server and disconnecting when moving away, which improves user experience and efficiency. Additionally, users can connect to 2GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz frequencies simultaneously to find the best and most stable connection. Realtek will showcase these technologies at CES.
Wi-Fi 7 Router Solution
Realtek’s Wi-Fi 7 AP/Router solutions include the BE7200 router and the BE3600 Router/Extender. They support the Wi-Fi 802.11be standard and offer new AI features like AI tunneling and dynamic bandwidth adjustment for improved performance. These solutions use a unified platform that accommodates various performance levels, making it easy for customers to develop different AP router models. The BE7200’s advanced 4T5R RF architecture delivers superior Wi-Fi performance and coverage, ideal for large homes and small to medium organizations. The BE3600 is the first AI MESH suite with a patented AI Location feature, providing a visual interface for quick user setup. Realtek’s demonstration this year will highlight AI Wi-Fi deployment scenarios for routers and extenders.
xPON with Wi-Fi 7 and Flexible Ethernet Solution
As fiber optic networks grow, telecom operators are upgrading bandwidth and improving Wi-Fi standards for a better user experience. Realtek’s xPON solution works with Realtek’s Wi-Fi chip, supporting the latest Wi-Fi 7 technology. This offers customers different Wi-Fi 7 options (BE3600, BE6500, and BE7200). Additionally, by integrating Realtek’s Switch and PHY solutions, the Ethernet configuration of xPON becomes more varied (2.5GE/5GE/10GE). Realtek’s new xPON solution also enhances power management to comply with future international power standards (CoC 9.0 or later).
Last Mile Solution for Automotive Ethernet
Over the last 10 years, the growth of ADAS and smart cockpits has led to significant improvements in in-vehicle Ethernet connectivity, now exceeding 100Mbps. Today, Automotive Ethernet can achieve speeds of up to 10Gbps, serving as a vital communication link for central computing units, zonal ECUs, LiDAR, and Radar. The next development in Automotive Ethernet aims at a 10Mbps low-speed connection for sensing and controlling devices at the end node. To support this, Realtek has introduced a 10BASE-T1S integrated PHY with a Multidrop feature, which reduces the need for multiple transceivers and simplifies software integration through a complete Ethernet protocol. Realtek’s 10BASE-T1S offers a strong solution for automakers looking to extend their automotive Ethernet systems all the way to the final connection.
