Super Micro Computer (trading as Supermicro) has expanded its portfolio of Open Compute Project (OCP) accepted systems, racks, and cooling products targeted at AI data centres.
Built on the company’s Data Center Building Block Solutions (DCBBS) framework, the equipment supports end-to-end rack- and cluster-scale implementations.

According to Supermicro, the ORv3 and ORW rack designs swap individual server power cords and supplies for a centralised 48V DC busbar.
Heat dissipation is addressed through direct-to-chip liquid cooling alongside rear door heat exchangers with capacities between 10kW and 120kW, which capture server exhaust before air enters the data hall.
Supermicro also added a 4U in-rack coolant distribution unit providing 250kW of cooling capacity using 45°C warm water, paired with ready-to-use PG coolants aligned with OCP specifications.
The 21in racks come in 44OU and 48OU sizes with a certified static load capacity of 5,000lb. (2,268kg), supporting 1 OU power shelves and 2 OU battery backup modules.
Server options include a liquid-cooled 2 OU Nvidia HGX B300 system supporting up to 144 GPUs per rack, alongside a dedicated rack series engineered for Nvidia Vera Rubin NVL72 deployments.
The line-up also features a 2 OU four-node design accommodating up to 45,696 Arm AGI CPUs, the AMD Helios platform, and 1 OU FlexTwin units powered by Intel Xeon 6 or AMD EPYC processors.
Supermicro president and CEO Charles Liang said: “The AI boom is redefining how data centers are designed, built, and deployed, and Supermicro is leading this transformation with DCBBS.
“By integrating compute, networking, power, advanced cooling, software, and services into validated rack-scale solutions, we help customers simplify complexity and accelerate the path from innovation to production.
“DCBBS enables customers to reduce TTM and TTO by delivering essential AI infrastructure faster and more efficiently.”
For data centre networking, Supermicro introduced air- and liquid-cooled 800G and 1.6T Ethernet switches, a 2 OU co-packaged optics switch delivering 102.4tbps across 128 ports, and production-stage Nvidia Spectrum-X Ethernet Photonics systems.
Operators can oversee the equipment through the SuperCloud software suite and OpenBMC architectures using Redfish application programming interfaces (APIs).
