Supermicro announces expanded manufacturing support for Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin NVL72 and HGX Rubin NVL8 chips with scaled liquid-cooling capacity.
Supermicro announced expansions in manufacturing capacity and liquid-cooling capabilities in collaboration with NVIDIA to enable rapid deployment of next-generation liquid-cooled AI infrastructure. The company is positioned to deliver the flagship NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 and NVIDIA HGX Rubin NVL8 systems. Supermicro's Data Center Building Block Solutions (DCBBS) approach delivers streamlined production, extensive customization options, and faster time-to-deployment for customers seeking competitive advantages in next-generation AI infrastructure.
Charles Liang, president and CEO of Supermicro, stated: "Supermicro's long-standing partnership with NVIDIA and our agile building block solutions enable us to bring the most advanced AI platforms to market faster than others. With expanded manufacturing and industry-leading liquid-cooling expertise, we're empowering hyperscalers and enterprises to deploy the NVIDIA Vera Rubin and Rubin platforms infrastructure at scale with unmatched speed, efficiency, and reliability."
The NVIDIA Vera Rubin platform benefits from newly announced NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet Photonics networking, built on the Spectrum-6 Ethernet ASIC delivering 102.4 Tb/s switching on TSMC 3nm with 200G SerDes co-packaged optics and fully shared buffers. This delivers 5x power efficiency, 10x reliability, and 5x application uptime compared to traditional pluggable optics. Available models include the liquid-cooled SN6800 with 409.6 Tb/s CPO and 512x 800G ports, the SN6810 with 102.4 Tb/s CPO and 128x 800G ports, and the SN6600 with pluggable and air/liquid-cooled capabilities at 128x 800G ports. Supermicro-based storage solutions utilize the Petascale all-flash storage server and JBOF system supporting the NVIDIA BlueField-4 DPU running various data management solutions.
Supermicro's strategic investments in expanded manufacturing facilities and a comprehensive end-to-end liquid-cooling technology stack are purpose-built to streamline production and deployment of fully liquid-cooled NVIDIA Vera Rubin and Rubin platforms. The modular DCBBS architecture accelerates deployment and time-to-online by enabling rapid configuration, rigorous validation, and seamless scaling of high-density platforms, ensuring customers achieve first-to-market advantages.
