50V DC power systems

Coming Soon! Eaton’s modular DC power solutions meet you where you are in your power journey, enabling efficient and cost-effective 50V DC power deployment in 19” racks while also supporting fully integrated 21” OCP ORV3 racks.

Accelerating rack density is driving DC power adoption

Data center power architectures are shifting toward DC as AI and HPC drive higher rack densities. Eaton’s modular 50V DC solutions deliver rack-level power—scaling from 33 kW to 132 kW per rack—without the complexity of custom or ODM designs.

Scalability
Expand from 33 kW to 132 kW per rack
Serviceability
Hot-swappable modules help reduce downtime
Simplicity
Off-the-shelf DC power infrastructure—no custom or ODM sourcing required
Compatibility:
Works with 19” and 21” racks from any vendor

Power shelf

  • Delivers up to 33 kW in 1U/1OU and scales up to 132 kW per rack.
  • Complies with the ORV3 high power rack (HPR) specification.
  • Holds up to six hot-swappable 5.5 kW high-efficiency PSUs.
  • Supports redundancy (N+1, N+N) and flexible input power options.
  • Installs in standard 19” (Nvidia profile) or 21” (OCP ORV3) racks (ORV3 rack installation requires ORV3 rail kit, sold separately.)

BBU shelf

  • Provides up to 90 seconds of battery backup runtime for a variety of application needs.
  • Holds up to six hot-swappable 2.75 kW BBU modules in 1U/1OU
  • Installs in standard 19” (Nvidia profile) or 21” (OCP ORV3) racks (ORV3 rack installation requires ORV3 rail kit, sold separately.)

Key applications:

  • AI and HPC racks, including the NVIDIA 19” rackmount profile and 21” ORV3 racks
  • Enterprise and colocation white space deployments
  • System integrator builds and repeatable rack configurations
  • Hyperscale/neocloud deployments requiring higher power density
  • OCP pilot/migration programs, with or without Eaton’s ORV3 racks
