Do you trust that companies building new AI infrastructure are prioritizing safety and reliability?
HARTING Technology Group has joined the NVIDIA MGX ecosystem as a power system component provider. The company now offers specialized power whip cable assemblies designed for the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 platform.
Why it matters
The integration addresses the critical infrastructure shift toward higher-voltage power architectures required to support the increased electrical demands of modern AI compute systems.
HARTING produces a 100A/480VAC power whip for 3RU 110kW power shelves and a 157A/800VDC variant for advanced architectures. These assemblies are engineered to facilitate the transition to 800VDC power, replacing lower-voltage delivery methods.
The players
HARTING Technology Group
A German-based manufacturer specializing in industrial connectivity, power distribution, and cable assembly systems for global data infrastructure.
NVIDIA
A designer of graphics processing units and AI compute platforms that establishes the MGX ecosystem for modular data center hardware standards.
The details
HARTING provides power whip cable assemblies, which act as the physical interconnects distributing electricity from facility power sources to individual compute racks. These components are necessary to manage the thermal and electrical load of the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72, a modular platform for AI infrastructure. By supporting 800VDC architectures, the hardware allows for higher power density compared to traditional 480VAC systems.
Timeline
HARTING generated 1.1 billion euros in revenue during the 2024/25 business year.
HARTING officially announced its entry into the NVIDIA MGX ecosystem on October 12, 2026.
The OCP Global Summit, where HARTING will exhibit at booth C79, takes place in 2026.
The Tech Race
The integration aligns HARTING with the industry-wide transition toward modular AI rack architectures validated by the Open Compute Project. This move positions the firm to supply the necessary power delivery hardware for next-generation, high-density compute infrastructure.
Data center operators and systems integrators will gain access to these power whip assemblies for integration into Vera Rubin NVL72-based racks starting in 2026. These components are designed specifically for high-capacity 110kW power shelves, replacing legacy connectivity for power-intensive AI clusters.
The takeaway
The move signals that power delivery hardware is evolving to match the higher voltage requirements of modern GPU-accelerated clusters. Track the exhibition of these components at booth C79 during the 2026 OCP Global Summit for further performance data.
