Hsinchu, Taiwan – May 21, 2026 – Realtek Semiconductor Corporation (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 2379.TW), one of the world’s leading network and multimedia IC providers, today announced that Realtek has won three COMPUTEX BC Awards. The panel of judges, composed of academicians, research institutions, and industry experts, chose the winning products based on functionality, innovation, and market potential. The standout products to receive these prestigious awards were the Integrated Ethernet Switch (RTL9072Dx Series), which won the Best Choice Golden Award, while the PCIe to Multi-IO Bridge Controller (RTL9151AS) and the Edge AI Accelerator (RTD2811) both received a Best Choice Category Award.
2026 COMPUTEX Golden Award Winner
Integrated Ethernet Switch (RTL9072Dx Series)
Realtek’s RTL9072Dx Series is available in 12-port and 10-port configurations; the solution is the industry’s only that integrates six 100/1000BASE-T1 PHYs, up to four 10G XFI ports, and a built-in 1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX PHY, reducing external PHYs and BOM cost for robotics, automotive Ethernet, and general networking. Single-pair SPE cabling with compact SMD common-mode chokes replaces bulky four-pair 1000BASE-T and RJ45 magnetics, cutting harness diameter, weight, and PCB footprint—ideal for robot joints, limbs, and UAV interiors. It is also in the industry’s only in its class to achieve ASIL D functional safety, offering full fault detection and diagnostics. The RTL9072DC has been adopted by leading global AI brands in humanoid robots as well as automotive SoC reference designs, proving technical leadership and global market confidence.
2026 COMPUTEX Category Award Winner
PCIe to Multi-IO Bridge Controller (RTL9151AS)
The RTL9151AS is an avant-garde, configurable multi-interface bridge controller for motherboards and compact systems, especially. It is the only single-chip solution on the market that integrates Ethernet, USB, and SATA in a single chip to simplify system architecture. It supports up to one Ethernet port, seven USB ports, and four SATA ports, enabling flexible I/O expansion and product differentiation using only a single PCIe Gen4 x1 lane (up to 16Gbps). It supports up to 2.5GbE Ethernet over a PCIe Gen4 x1 interface, is compatible with IEEE 802.3u/ab/bz and 802.3az, and features built-in traffic prioritization & hardware offload acceleration, effectively enhancing throughput and stability. It also integrates EEE, ACPI, and remote wake-up to reduce standby power. In addition, it also supports USB up to 10 Gbps, suitable for UAC/UVC/HID and storage devices. The SATA supports up to 6 Gb/s, with Link Power Management and SMART monitoring.
2026 COMPUTEX Category Award Winner
Edge AI Accelerator (RTD2811)
Realtek’s RTD2811 supports both conventional CNN and Transformer models for edge generative AI applications such as live translation, LLM, AI agents, and multi-modal generative AI applications. Embeds 20 TOPS NPU and supports multiple formats (INT4, INT8, INT16, FP8, FP16, and BP16). It is equipped with big-core CPU/GPU and can act as a system SoC. It also supports LPDDR4x/5/5x, and the usage can be optimized based on density and bandwidth for the application by choosing LPDDR4x or LPDDR5/5x and supports additional standalone video/audio interfaces such as USB-C, DisplayPort, and others for video/audio products. It can process the input video/audio in real time and output to an external display or panel. Supports USB/PCIe interfaces as an AI accelerator and can be adopted for edge AI computers, industry computers, NAS, etc.
“We are honored to receive three COMPUTEX Taipei awards, recognizing our contributions in the field of AI," said Yee-Wei Huang, Realtek's vice president and spokesman. “By leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies, we help customers turn innovation into real-world solutions, delivering optimal outcomes with both efficiency and value, and creating long-term competitive advantages for our customers.”
