GPU rack density is rising faster than infrastructure planning cycles. Today's AI training racks draw 145 kW, with next-generation platforms expected to reach 600 kW, and future platforms exceeding 1 MW. In this session, we answer the key questions that every operator planning AI infrastructure needs to address to prepare their power architecture. The session will focus on open, practical design criteria and will cover:

  • Who needs 800 VDC today, and who does not
  • Why architecture optionality matters more than picking one path early, and which market claims deserve scrutiny
  • How the phased journey to 800 VDC power architecture works
  • Key considerations beyond power efficiency
