Powering the AI Surge: How High-Density & Liquid Cooling Are Redefining Rack PDU Architecture
The 100kW+ AI Rack Era & Power Bottleneck Driven by NVIDIA Blackwell B200 and next-gen GPU clusters, modern AI racks are rapidly scaling from traditional 10–15kW layouts to 40kW, 80kW, and 100kW+ per cabinet. As system-level architecture replaces traditional chip-level scaling, the datacenter itself has become the primary computing unit. However, traditional low-amperage PDUs cannot withstand these extreme power loads—making custom high-density rack power architecture critical to removing the AI infrastructure bottleneck.
