Vertiv unveils cooling and power architecture for NVIDIA GB300 NVL72

Vertiv has introduced a 142 kW energy-efficient cooling and power reference architecture for the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 platform. The design is available as SimReady 3D assets in the NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for AI factory design and operations. It aims to support faster planning, customization, and deployment of AI data centers.

The reference architecture integrates cooling and power strategies to meet anticipated increases in rack power density. Vertiv is also working with NVIDIA to develop 800 VDC data center power infrastructure for IT racks of 1 MW and beyond, with product availability expected in 2026.

The Vertiv solution supports rack densities up to 142 kW and is part of the Vertiv 360AI infrastructure platform. It includes features such as liquid cooling readiness, support for air- and hybrid-cooled configurations, and an emphasis on simulation-based design validation. According to Vertiv, the system can reduce physical space by 30%, accelerate build times by up to 50%, and improve energy efficiency by up to 70%.

“Building upon our strong collaboration with NVIDIA and a shared vision to advance AI infrastructure, Vertiv is proud to release our comprehensive reference design and SimReady 3D assets for the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 platform,” said Scott Armul, executive vice president of global portfolio and business units at Vertiv.

“Together, we’re helping organisations unlock new levels of performance and sustainability as they build the future of AI,” said Dion Harris, senior director of HPC and AI Infrastructure at NVIDIA.

The solution is backed by Vertiv’s global network of over 4,000 field service engineers and is designed to support AI infrastructure development at scale.
