Schneider Electric and Hon Hai Technology Group, known internationally as Foxconn, have struck up a new partnership that will see them jointly develop and scale the power and cooling systems in data centres.
The production of the companies' first joint hardware solutions is set to begin later this year.
The deal pairs Foxconn's global manufacturing scale and AI rack integration know-how with Schneider Electric's expertise in power, cooling and energy management.
Together, the firms plan to supply integrated hardware that helps operators build AI facilities across multiple regions with far greater predictability over energy use.
"At the pace AI is evolving, the industry requires a new model for how infrastructure is designed, built and delivered," says Young Liu, Chairman of Foxconn.
