UfiSpace Showcases 1.6T AI Fabric with Advanced Cooling at OCP Global Summit 2026

UfiSpace Unveils Its 1.6T AI Fabric and Liquid Cooling Platform

At the OCP Global Summit 2026 in San Jose, California, UfiSpace, a prominent player in open disaggregated networking, made headlines by demonstrating its innovative 1.6T AI networking platform equipped with live liquid cooling technology. This advanced setup showcases UfiSpace’s commitment to addressing the escalating thermal challenges faced by hyperscale data centers as they accommodate increasingly demanding AI workloads.

The Challenge of High-Density Data Centers

The surge in AI applications has led to a significant increase in power density requirements for data centers. Consequently, there is a pressing need for effective thermal management solutions that can sustain operational efficiency while maintaining performance standards. UfiSpace's showcase at Booth D19 introduces attendees to its cutting-edge 102.4 Tbps liquid-cooled platform, designed to validate thermal feasibility for high-density AI fabrics.

A Closer Look: S9331-64HO3L Platform

Central to the demonstration is the S9331-64HO3L platform, leveraging Broadcom's Tomahawk 6 ASIC technology. This liquid-cooled marvel operates with an impressive 64 × 1.6T OSFP ports and utilizes an innovative Cooling Distribution Unit (CDU) to effectively manage heat. As a validation-ready architecture, this system paves the way for hyperscalers and system integrators to build robust AI clusters anticipated for deployment in 2027 and beyond.

Accompanying this setup is the S9331-64HO, a 3RU air-cooled alternative offering similar performance but tailored for environments where liquid cooling may be impractical. By integrating both cooling solutions, UfiSpace enables data center operators to optimize their Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) while ensuring flexibility in their infrastructure strategies.

Enhancing AI Connectivity with Deep-Buffer Routers

In tandem with its primary offerings, UfiSpace introduces its new range of deep-buffer routers aimed at improving packet delivery across data centers. The S9630-32HO, powered by the Qumran 4D ASIC, boasts 51.2 Tbps switching capacity, and effectively mitigates latency issues associated with long-distance AI communications. This router exemplifies the company’s commitment to delivering high-capacity gateways necessary for robust AI fabrics.

Additionally, the S9620-32E router utilizes Qumran 3D technology to deliver optimized routing and interfacing, enhancing connectivity for multi-site AI infrastructures.

The Vision for AI Infrastructure

The showcasing of UfiSpace's S9322-64EO represents yet another major step in establishing high-density switching solutions specifically engineered for AI workloads. This platform operates at 800G and is exceptionally well-suited for GPU clusters, effectively reducing latency and maximizing throughput crucial for AI training tasks.

Partnership with GeNopsys Technologies

UfiSpace has also partnered with GeNopsys Technologies to create an integrated Ethernet-optical switching solution for next-gen AI infrastructure. This collaboration aims to enhance the efficiency of AI scale-out and scale-across networks, reducing energy consumption and significantly shortening training times. Such innovations are critical as they provide an operational backbone for AI-centric applications and research, which are becoming more prevalent in today’s digital landscape.

Maria Yuang, CEO of GeNopsys, expressed excitement regarding the partnership, stating that it marries the adaptability of Ethernet with the advantages of optical switching to meet the demands of modern AI operations.

Looking Ahead: The Future of AI Data Centers

Vincent Ho, CEO of UfiSpace, emphasized the need to align various elements including silicon, optics, and thermal management to facilitate the effective transition to high-capacity AI networking. By showcasing viable thermal solutions at the OCP Global Summit, UfiSpace aims to inspire confidence in future data center designs and the capacity to handle next-generation AI workloads.

As the technology landscape rapidly evolves, the developments at UfiSpace are indicative of a larger trend in the data center industry—where adaptability, efficiency, and intelligent design converge to support the relentless growth of AI. To experience UfiSpace’s solutions firsthand, industry stakeholders are invited to visit Booth D19 at the event, running from October 12–15, 2026.
