Every new generation of accelerated computing demands more from the infrastructure underneath it — more compute performance, higher rack density and more efficient, scalable power distribution. The bottleneck isn’t just wattage. It’s how power gets from the grid to the GPU. In traditional power delivery, electricity travels from the grid as an alternating current (AC) and gets converted multiple times, each time adding overhead and complexity as racks become denser.
