Vertiv Unveils Two Data Center Power Systems; Shares Fall 3.77%

Vertiv shares traded at $201.74 Friday, down 3.77% on the day, one day after the company introduced two power systems for data centers serving high-demand computing workloads.

The PowerStation 3100 RPP, a remote power panel, is designed for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing racks drawing more than 100 kilowatts. It is available in North America and uses one UL-listed platform for four configurations: 600, 800, 1,000 and 1,200 amps.

The panel's branch breakers include remote shunt trips, which let a leak detection system shut off power to an individual rack. Built-in metering tracks power use, breaker position and trip status. The panel supports AC power distribution and DC rack designs, and can operate on its own or alongside Vertiv's SmartRun and OneCore systems.

Vertiv also introduced the PowerNexus MV UPS, an outdoor-rated, medium-voltage system for colocation, neocloud and hyperscale operators. The company lists peak operating efficiency of up to 98.5%. Paired with long-duration batteries, the system can provide up to four hours of battery-backed operation. Vertiv expects shipments to begin in mid-2027.

QTS, SoftBank Group and Rosendin completed proof-of-concept testing at Vertiv's research and development center in Bologna, Italy. Vertiv said the system maintained stable performance across loads from 0% to 100% and rode through a 100% voltage sag lasting 150 milliseconds.

The launches follow a quarter in which Vertiv's sales rose 61% year over year. Organic orders more than doubled year over year, and the company raised its 2026 sales outlook. The PowerStation is available now in North America; PowerNexus shipments are expected to begin in mid-2027.
