Dell Technologies unveiled new innovations across the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA, aimed at helping enterprises fast-track AI adoption and drive measurable value across their operations.
The Need for Scalable AI Solutions
As organizations shift from AI experimentation to full-scale implementation, the demand for powerful, accessible, and scalable AI technologies is rising rapidly. To meet this demand, Dell and NVIDIA continue to enhance their AI infrastructure, delivering a unified stack of compute, storage, networking, and services designed to simplify AI deployment and maximize performance.
Next-Generation Infrastructure to Power AI Workloads
Dell Technologies is introducing advanced compute, storage, and networking solutions engineered for high-performance AI workloads:
-
New PowerEdge Servers: The air-cooled Dell PowerEdge XE9780 and XE9785 streamline integration into existing data centers, while the liquid-cooled XE9780L and XE9785L support rack-scale deployments. These systems support up to 192 NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra GPUs per rack, expandable to 256 GPUs within Dell’s IR7000 architecture, offering up to 4x faster LLM training with 8-way NVIDIA HGX B300 configurations.⁴
-
PowerEdge XE9712: Featuring the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72, this platform delivers a 50x increase in inference throughput and up to 5x improvement in processing efficiency. Enhanced with Dell PowerCool technology, it’s optimized for energy-efficient AI training at scale.
-
Coming Soon: In July 2025, the Dell PowerEdge XE7745 will be available with NVIDIA RTX Pro™ 6000 Blackwell Server Edition GPUs. Designed for demanding physical and agentic AI workloads, this 4U chassis supports up to 8 GPUs and is validated for NVIDIA’s Enterprise AI Factory design.
-
Future-Ready Innovation: Dell plans to support the NVIDIA Vera CPU and Vera Rubin platform with a new PowerEdge XE server for Dell Integrated Rack Scalable Systems, offering even greater speed and performance for enterprise AI needs.
-
Enhanced Networking: Dell extends its portfolio with the Dell PowerSwitch SN5600 and SN2201 Ethernet switches, integrated with the NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet platform, and NVIDIA Quantum-X800 InfiniBand. These 800 Gbps, low-latency switches are now supported by Dell ProSupport and Deployment Services, ensuring smooth AI infrastructure rollout.
Together, these technologies power the Dell AI Factory with NVIDIA—a comprehensive, validated solution that includes Dell compute, storage, and networking combined with NVIDIA AI Enterprise software for a turnkey AI deployment experience.
