Schneider Electric has launched the Galaxy VXL uninterruptible power supply (UPS), claiming it to be the industry’s most compact, high-density UPS designed for AI, data centers, and large-scale electrical workloads.
The Galaxy VXL offers 52% space savings compared to the industry average, delivering up to 1.25 MW of modular power with a power density of 1042 kW/m² in a smaller footprint.
Additionally, Schneider Electric introduced a new data center reference design co-developed with NVIDIA. This design supports liquid-cooled, high-density AI clusters of up to 132 kW per rack, optimized for NVIDIA’s latest chips, addressing the unique challenges of scaling liquid cooling for AI workloads.
Both innovations are part of Schneider Electric’s AI-ready data center solutions, aimed at creating energy-efficient and sustainable infrastructure for the growing energy demands of AI.
