Super Micro Computer has introduced a comprehensive portfolio of ORv3-standard racks designed to support mission-critical, high-density AI data center deployments. As a component of their Data Center Building Block Solutions® (DCBBS), the newly designed racks are built with the purpose of facilitating the implementation of liquid-cooling solutions in order to help companies lower TCO and deploy AI infrastructures more efficiently. Factory-tested and delivered in shock- and vibration-tested containers, the racks come validated and ready to be installed, providing fast time-to-online for AI clusters. Designed fully in-house, the racks offer reinforced chassis that can withstand up to 5,500 pounds, which is above the average standards of the industry and ensures reliability for GPU-powered systems, power and liquid-cooling components. In combination with modular design and pre-assembly services in the factory and Rack Integration Services, such an approach enables easier deployment and minimizes integration efforts.

They include the capability of connecting in-rack and in-row cooling distribution units, rear-door heat exchangers and liquid-cooling manifolds. “AI infrastructure starts with the right foundation, and our purpose-built rack portfolio is engineered to accelerate every stage of deployment,” said Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro. “As a key component of our DCBBS technologies, these high-density, liquid-cooling-optimized racks enable customers to deploy AI clusters faster, maximize compute density, improve reliability, and reduce total cost of ownership. Our manufacturing scale enables us to deliver up to 3,000 of these advanced racks per month, including 2,000 liquid-cooled racks from our facilities around the world for immediate deployment into existing and new data centers. The racks are Plug-and-Play ready for immediate installation in the customers data center.”
