CDM 3MW AI Modular Data Center Solution
High-Density Data Hall for Mid-Scale AI Training and Heavy Inference Clusters
The CDM 3MW AI Modular Data Center Solution is constructed by physically connecting two 1.5MW base modules to create a contiguous data hall, supported by two dedicated 2MW Power Modules. Engineered for mid-scale AI training and heavy inference, it delivers physical isolation, dedicated power redundancy, and rapid deployment velocity for mission-critical compute clusters.
Key Features & Highlights
Plug-and-Play Infrastructure: Pre-engineered contiguous data hall with fully integrated power and cooling connections ready to accommodate up to 40 server racks for rapid deployment.
Dual Dedicated Power: Powered by 2x dedicated 2MW power modules with dynamic load stabilization and standard 5-minute EOL battery runtime to buffer GPU transient loads.
Hybrid Liquid/Air Cooling: Chilled Water AHUs paired with secondary direct-to-chip (DTC) liquid cooling loops via in-rack or in-row CDUs, fully backed by redundant UPS power.
Standardized Design: Standardized core built in the USA to ISO 9001 and UL 2755 compliance standards.
Engineered and factory-built in the USA, the 3MW AI Modular Solution pairs contiguous data hall white space with dual dedicated power modules to support mid-scale LLM training and heavy generative workloads. Built to ISO 9001 and UL 2755 standards, this open-OEM platform deploys rapidly on site to deliver immediate, high-resilience compute capacity.
