HDMI® Technology is the foundation for the worldwide ecosystem of HDMI-connected devices; integrated with displays, set-top boxes, laptops, audio video receivers and other product types. Because of this global usage, manufacturers, resellers, integrators and consumers must be assured that their HDMI® products work seamlessly together and deliver the best possible performance by sourcing products from licensed HDMI Adopters or authorized resellers. For HDMI Cables, consumers can look for the official HDMI® Cable Certification Labels on packaging. Innovation continues with the latest HDMI 2.2 Specification that supports higher 96Gbps bandwidth and next-gen HDMI Fixed Rate Link technology to provide optimal audio and video for a wide range of device applications. Higher resolutions and refresh rates are supported, including up to 12K@120 and 16K@60. Additionally, more high-quality options are supported, including uncompressed full chroma formats such as 8K@60/4:4:4 and 4K@240/4:4:4 at 10-bit and 12-bit color.

The company’s edge AI acceleration hardware includes PCIe cards and M.2 modules developed in collaboration with Hailo. These solutions are offered in configurations utilizing one, two, or four Hailo AI processors. Designed for low power consumption, the PCIe accelerators run directly off motherboard slot power without requiring auxiliary power cables. The modules deliver up to 40 TOPS of AI performance, enabling real-time local inference and support for large language models, including 3.8 billion and 7 billion parameter Llama models.
For software deployment, Sunix hardware interfaces with Hailo model conversion utilities to compile neural networks for the Hailo AI system-on-chip. At the exhibition, Sunix demonstrated image analysis and automatic detection capabilities using a video management system powered by Network Optix software. This architecture enables real-time edge-based inferencing on customer devices without relying on cloud resources.
Sunix also showed IoT and computing module solutions, including a System on Module (SOM) based on the MediaTek Genio 720 SoC. This smart module features an integrated neural processing unit delivering up to 10 TOPS, targeting edge AI applications such as digital signage players with HDMI output when integrated into ODM partner systems. Other remote I/O products gather data from serial sensors, AI sensors, and input devices over the internet, utilizing M.2 to digital I/O interfaces.
For high-performance connectivity, Sunix exhibited a USB4 host card certified by the USB4 community. The card supports up to 100W power output, enabling single-cable connectivity for power and display signals to devices such as medical-grade monitors. Additionally, the company provides KFD CAN bus communication cards for integration in specialized systems like autonomous driving buses, where they serve as the central interface for collecting telemetry and operational data.
