New compact and combo configurations support up to 10 MW and more than 100 kW per rack, enabling rapid, scalable deployment for next‑gen data centers
Vertiv has introduced new configurations of its Vertiv MegaMod HDX, a fully integrated modular power and liquid cooling solution engineered for high‑density computing environments such as AI clusters, GPU farms and high‑performance computing (HPC). Announced on January 20, 2026, the launch expands Vertiv’s liquid cooling portfolio to meet the surging demand for scalable, deployment‑ready infrastructure across North America, EMEA and global markets.
The MegaMod HDX integrates direct‑to‑chip liquid cooling with advanced air‑cooled systems to manage extreme thermal loads generated by modern AI and HPC workloads. The new configurations include:
- Compact Solution: A standard‑height module supporting up to 13 racks and 1.25 MW capacity.
- Combo Solution: An extended‑height design supporting up to 144 racks and 10 MW capacity.
“Today’s AI workloads demand cooling solutions that go beyond traditional approaches. MegaMod HDX gives operators the reliability, efficiency and scalability they need to grow with confidence.”

Both configurations support rack densities from 50 kW to well over 100 kW per rack, making them suitable for hyperscalers, colocation operators and enterprises accelerating AI adoption. The prefabricated modular design enables faster deployment, predictable performance and easier data center expansion as demand grows.
“These designs deliver what data centers need most reliable performance, operational efficiency and scalable AI infrastructure,” said Viktor Petik, Vertiv’s Senior Vice President of Infrastructure Solutions.
The MegaMod HDX features distributed redundant power architecture, ensuring continuous operation even if a module goes offline. A buffer‑tank thermal backup system maintains stable cooling during maintenance windows or load changes, preserving uptime for mission‑critical GPU clusters.
The system also incorporates Vertiv’s broader ecosystem of power and cooling solutions, including the Liebert APM2 UPS, Vertiv CoolChip CDU, Vertiv PowerBar busway, and Vertiv Unify monitoring platform. Customers can also integrate OCP‑compliant racks, rear‑door heat exchangers, in‑rack cooling, and advanced power distribution units from Vertiv’s existing portfolio.
By combining factory‑integrated, fully tested modules with a global service network, Vertiv aims to reduce deployment complexity and give operators a predictable, high‑density infrastructure foundation for AI‑driven growth.
