Eaton launches Beam Rubin DSX Platform in Collaboration with NVIDIA for AI Factory Power and Cooling Infrastructure.The platform integrates Eaton's grid-to-chip architecture with the NVIDIA Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference design and the NVIDIA Omniverse DSX blueprint, enabling modular scalability for accelerated global AI factory deployments.
Data center power demand is projected to nearly triple between 2025 and 2030, with industry analysts estimating upwards of $7 trillion in worldwide data center capital expenditures. The platform addresses this by compressing AI factory buildout timelines from years to months and increasing compute from existing capacity. The Eaton Beam Rubin DSX provides a pre-engineered, end-to-end standard implementation covering grid infrastructure, power distribution, and advanced chip-level cooling. It scales from megawatts to hundreds of megawatts and forms a full AI data center power ecosystem.
Angie McMillin, president of Energy Solutions and Services at Eaton, stated that power and cooling for AI factories depend on energy flexibility, modular scalability, and design blueprints to expedite speed to power. Eaton is transforming equipment design and power management to accelerate AI factory buildout and improve efficiency and reliability for customers.
Vladimir Troy, vice president of AI infrastructure at NVIDIA, noted that AI factories require co-design of power, cooling, and compute for massive scale. Eaton's integration of grid-to-chip power solutions into the NVIDIA Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference design and Omniverse DSX blueprint helps enterprises deploy high-density data centers while maximizing energy efficiency.
Eaton's collaboration with Siemens Energy provides options for simultaneous construction of data centers and onsite power generation to address global power bottlenecks for AI factories. Eaton is also advocating for flexible load management across industries to unlock up to 100 gigawatts of grid capacity for data centers, equivalent to nine times New York City's energy demand.
The platform adopts a fully modular approach to support gigawatt-scale AI factories, reducing onsite labor and enabling future upgrades. It leverages Eaton's global manufacturing footprint, Fibrebond business, NordicEPOD skidding system, and Flexnode collaboration for the NVIDIA DSX architecture.
In NVIDIA Omniverse DSX, Eaton supplies digital twins of its technologies as SimReady 3D assets in OpenUSD format, allowing real-time simulation of power and cooling systems alongside compute models. This enables customers to design, simulate, and validate energy infrastructure before construction to shorten time to revenue and create sustainable, reconfigurable AI factories.
Eaton exhibited its AI factory architecture and end-to-end technologies from grid to chip at NVIDIA GTC 2026 in booth 97, held March 16–19 in San Jose, California. Eaton’s vice president and chief architect for the global data center segment, JP Buzzell, will discuss the company’s 800 VDC power infrastructure during the conference. Eaton is an intelligent power management company serving data center, utility, industrial, commercial, machine building, residential, aerospace, and mobility markets. Founded in 1911, the company reported revenues of $27.4 billion in 2025 and operates in 180 countries.
