Questions

PowerRack provides the foundation for your AI factory with validated, scalable, and efficient AI-ready platforms. PowerRack complements our comprehensive ecosystem, helping orgranizations deploy and scale AI solutions.
Dell conducts end-to-end testing and verification for quality assurance as part of our deployment process. Multi-step stress testing reduces the field incident rate versus what other providers offer. Dell also offers an initial data center assessment and design services by experts in infrastructure and DLC with decades of expertise in designing high-performance computing environments.
With patented AC whips, more space and support for cabling, and blind mate DLC and power connections, our rack design offers serviceability with less downtime during maintenance and upgrades. Our racks support future technology deployments with a multi-generational PowerCool DLC system, a higher wattage power shelf, and a DLC busbar capable of handling up to 576 kW per rack.
Dell provides comprehensive technical support for the complete rack-scale system – servers, networking, storage, and cooling - for easy operation and quick issue resolution. We offer both PowerCool and third party cooling options. By integrating management, cooling, and services into a unified system, we address the critical challenge of managing infrastructure with a single-vendor model.
The Dell Integrated Rack Controller, working with OpenManage Enterprise, simplifies operations in PowerRack for networking by providing unified, rack-level visibility and control across switches, cooling and connected components. It helps streamline monitoring, alerting and coordinated response, including rack-level leak detection and mitigation, so teams can manage high-density AI and HPC infrastructure through a unified operational model.
Air-cooled servers that can be delivered in 19” racks are available for purchase outside of the PowerRack program. All DLC and hybrid DLC servers and rack sleds are only available as a part of PowerRack with expanded rack-scale integration services.
