Dell Launches Blackwell-Ready PowerEdge Servers with Integrated Liquid Cooling
Dell India President Manish Gupta is at the center of Dell’s expansion across APAC, where AI-first infrastructure is moving from pilot to scale.
Dell Technologies has officially launched its PowerEdge XE7740 and XE7745 servers across the Asia-Pacific region, designed to support NVIDIA’s Blackwell architecture GPUs. These platforms feature integrated direct-to-chip liquid cooling, aimed at enabling AI training workloads in dense, high-performance environments.
The XE7740 (4U) and XE7745 (5U) form factors are built for use in rack environments exceeding 50kW per rack, now increasingly common in enterprise and co-location AI deployments. Both models support high-bandwidth memory (HBM) configurations and PCIe Gen5 expansion, aligning with AI and HPC use cases.
By incorporating liquid cooling, Dell aims to improve performance-per-watt and reduce the operational challenges associated with legacy air-cooled data centers. The company also highlights that these new PowerEdge units are optimized for Dell’s broader AI Factory solution with NVIDIA, which includes hardware, orchestration software, and professional services for deployment.
The availability of these servers in the Asia-Pacific market reflects rising regional demand for AI-first infrastructure. Countries including Japan, South Korea, and Australia are scaling enterprise AI deployments, with increasing investment in energy-efficient, high-performance compute infrastructure.
Dell is marketing these units as viable both for new AI-ready facilities and for retrofitting existing infrastructure to support AI workloads, enabling organizations to extend their investment timelines while staying competitive in compute performance.
