Keynote and three product showcases address the cooling, power, and interconnect challenges defining next-generation AI data centers
SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- xFusion, a global computing infrastructure provider, is exhibiting at the 2026 Open Compute Project (OCP) Global Summit from October 12–15 at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center (Booth A33), presenting its latest AI computing infrastructure — spanning liquid-cooled rack-scale systems, super node architecture, and next-generation high-voltage DC power solutions — alongside a keynote address on the power and cooling challenges reshaping the AI data center landscape.
AI's Growing Appetite Demands a New Infrastructure Playbook
The rapid scaling of AI workloads is pushing data center power density to unprecedented levels. Single-chip power consumption is trending toward 3,000 watts and beyond, while rack-level power density is advancing from hundreds of kilowatts toward the megawatt class. In this environment, power delivery and cooling — long considered back-end utilities — are emerging as the defining constraints on AI infrastructure scalability.
At OCP 2026, Director of Product Management at xFusion, Arthur Wang delivered a keynote titled "Next-Generation Power & Cooling Solutions," introducing a new framework for measuring data center value: WATT → FLOPS → TOKEN → AGENT → VALUE. Rather than counting servers shipped or cards installed, this framework evaluates how efficiently every watt of electricity is ultimately converted into real business outcomes — from raw compute, to AI tokens, to autonomous agents that deliver measurable value.
"In the Agentic era, competitiveness is not about how many chips you have," said Wang. "It is about how much real business value you can extract from every watt and every joule of heat."
From Watts to Value: Three Converging Revolutions
Delivering on that vision requires solving three infrastructure challenges at once — cooling, power, and interconnect. At OCP 2026, xFusion is showcasing how it addresses all three:
Cooling: With chip-level heat density surpassing what air cooling can physically manage, 100% direct liquid cooling (DLC) is becoming the baseline for AI infrastructure. xFusion's advanced cold plate solutions, incorporating diamond-copper composite materials, deliver single-chip cooling capacity exceeding 4,000 watts — providing headroom for next-generation processors. FusionPod for AI V8, a 42U modular liquid-cooled rack supporting up to 155 kW, is designed for flexible deployment across retrofit and containerized environments, with a distributed CDU that requires no secondary piping modifications.
Power: Traditional 54V DC distribution faces severe efficiency losses at megawatt scale. xFusion is advancing 800V high-voltage DC (HVDC) architecture, which dramatically reduces current and line losses. The company's 800V HVDC Sidecar — a next-generation power supply prototype engineered for 300 kW to 1.2 MW configurations — lays the groundwork for megawatt-class rack-level power delivery.
Interconnect: As electrical signaling approaches physical limits beyond 224G, the transition toward optical interconnects — including co-packaged optics (CPO) — is enabling the bandwidth density that large-scale AI clusters require. xFusion's DaYu 2.0 Super Node, an open-architecture liquid-cooled system delivering up to 240 kW per rack with 128 XPU per cabinet and 256 XPU across dual cabinets, is built to harness these advances while supporting multi-vendor processor compatibility without single-chip lock-in.
These three shifts are not isolated. Together, they form the engineering foundation for what xFusion calls "computing-power synergy" — a system-level approach that optimizes energy flow from the grid all the way to the chip.
Open Standards, Global Reach
xFusion has joined more than 60 industry organizations worldwide and contributed to over 60 industry standards, with an ecosystem encompassing over 30,000 partners. As AI workloads scale from cloud to edge, and power density pushes toward the megawatt class, xFusion will continue to drive open, efficient infrastructure that turns every watt into real-world value.

Bringing Its Signature Bold, Color-Forward Swimwear Aesthetic into Workouts and Weekends
SHANGHAI, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- POPVIL, a swimwear-led women's apparel brand known for bold color blocking and playful contrast, today announced the launch of ColorSoft™, an activewear collection that extends the brand's signature color-led design language into movement and everyday life. Throughout the 2026 swimwear season, POPVIL consistently ranked among the top five swimwear brands by sales volume on the U.S. TikTok Shop. (Source: FastMoss, U.S. TikTok Shop Swimwear Category Monthly Sales Ranking, June 2026.)
POPVIL's swimwear has long used bright colors and energetic design to help women feel confident and express their personality. Through ongoing customer conversations, the brand found that women valued not only how its products looked, but also how they made them feel—comfortable, supported and confident.
One POPVIL customer in her 60s wrote:
"I appreciate that you make swimsuits that allow a woman in her 60s to put one on and feel comfortable, confident and really good about herself. ... I love the bold colors."
That feedback helped inspire POPVIL to bring the same sense of comfort, confidence and self-expression beyond vacation and into everyday movement.
Customer research reinforced the opportunity. Across surveys conducted in August 2025 and August 2026, POPVIL collected more than 1000 responses from customers who had purchased POPVIL swimwear, with more than 65% reporting that they exercise regularly.
Vibrant Activewear for Workouts and Weekends
ColorSoft™ brings POPVIL's recognizable color DNA into activewear through contrast binding, color blocking, clean lines and figure-flattering silhouettes. Designed for workouts, outdoor walks and weekend routines, the collection reflects the brand's belief that activewear can combine function with personality and mood.
The "Soft" in ColorSoft™ represents the collection's focus on comfort. Several core styles use a custom-developed brushed nylon-spandex fabric designed to balance next-to-skin softness, stretch and supportive hold. Early testers described the hand feel as "buttery soft." The fabric also offers moisture-wicking performance and breathability for movement and everyday wear.
With a core customer base of women aged 30 and older, POPVIL also designed the collection around coverage, support, flattering fit and everyday practicality. Key categories include:
- Sports Tanks with Built-In Support: Core tank styles integrate built-in bras and coverage into a single top. Varied necklines, open-back details and contrast-color elements balance support and midsection coverage with a lighter, flattering look. Coordinated colors, lines and trims across tanks and leggings also create complete set looks.
- High-Waisted Leggings: Many styles replace traditional elastic waistbands with folded-fabric construction, creating a softer, smoother high-rise fit with less digging through the waist. Crossover V-waistbands, back V-seam detailing and side pockets combine flattering lines with practical functionality for workouts, outdoor walks and everyday errands.
- All-in-One Active Dresses: Designed as complete outfits in one piece, the dresses feature integrated shorts to eliminate the inconvenience of detachable liners that can be misplaced. A discreet back opening also simplifies restroom access, addressing a common drawback of active dresses with built-in shorts.
Together, the pieces are designed to move naturally from workouts and outdoor walks into everyday life—functional enough for exercise while polished and practical enough for weekends.
"ColorSoft™ is a natural extension of what our customers already value about POPVIL: color, comfort and confidence," said Jane Go, Marketing Director at POPVIL. "We developed the collection around the way women actually move—from training and outdoor walks to errands and weekends—so performance does not have to come at the expense of personality or ease."
ColorSoft™ brings POPVIL's "Wear the Good Mood" philosophy from vacations into movement and everyday life, with activewear designed to help women feel good in what they wear.
The ColorSoft™ Collection is now available at popvil.com and through the official POPVIL TikTok Shop, @popvil_official. The collection includes sports tanks, leggings, active sets and active dresses, with additional silhouettes and colorways planned.
