Siemens : and partners develop reference architecture purpose-built for NVIDIA AI data centers

About this update from Siemens Aktiengesellschaft

Press Zug, Switzerland, June 1, 2026 Siemens and partners develop reference architecture purpose-built for NVIDIA AI data centers UL-aligned reference architecture developed by Siemens, NVIDIA, and Fluence DSX Vera Rubin AI factory reference design focuses infrastructure requirements on speed, efficiency, and reliability Siemens - together with NVIDIA and Fluence, and incorporating nVent-aligned design considerations - has developed an NVIDIA DSX Vera Rubin-aligned reference design that translates NVIDIA's AI factory vision into a deployable, industrialized electrical, power and controls architecture for hyperscalers, colocation providers, and specialized cloud infrastructure providers. As AI factories become more pronounced in the data center industry, next-generation platforms such as NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 are redefining infrastructure requirements, pushing technology to new limits, especially in the domains of power and cooling. Owners and operators of AI factories face a new operating reality characterized by site selection, grid interconnection strategy, capital efficiency, and time to revenue, all while balancing a suite of new and emerging technologies. Siemens AG Communications Head: Christiane Ribeiro Werner-von-Siemens-Strasse 1 80333 Munich Germany Sized at a total facility capacity of 136 MW with an IT load of 100 MW, Siemens' reference design for NVIDIA DSX Vera Rubin NVL72 delivers an end-to-end electrical, power and controls solution, spanning the complete path from the utility connection (nominal 34.5 kV) through medium-voltage distribution, modular low-voltage power blocks, and ultimately to the rack interface. With a baseline architecture targeting Tier III concurrent maintainability, any single component can be removed from service without impacting IT operations. And as it is built on repeatable, scalable electrical building blocks aligned with NVIDIA DSX Vera Rubin deployment units, capacity can be added in phases - supporting initial deployments of tens of megawatts and scaling to hundreds of megawatts or beyond - without fundamental redesign. The reference design incorporates nVent-aligned electrical design parameters to ensure compatibility with NVIDIA workloads and system architectures, with a planned expansion to include advanced thermal management capabilities in a forthcoming supplement.
