SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Exascale Labs Holdings Inc. (\u201cExascale\u201d) (Nasdaq: XLAB), a next-generation AI infrastructure provider, today announced that it has entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent with Compal Electronics, Inc. (\u201cCompal\u201d) (TWSE: 2324), a global IT solutions leader, to jointly develop a U.S.-based platform for next-generation GPU systems. The platform will be built on a native 800-volt direct current (VDC) architecture using solid-state transformer (SST) technology to test how GPU computing systems perform in a fully integrated AI data center environment.<\/p>\n

The platform will combine Compal’s production-grade GPU server platforms and liquid cooling systems with Exascale’s Modular Data Center (MDC) and SST power architecture to validate power, compute, cooling, and controls as an integrated system. As GPU rack densities increase, the industry is exploring 800 VDC to reduce conversion stages and improve power distribution efficiency. At present, integrated physical validation across power, servers, cooling, and software controls remains limited. The project is designed to bring both companies\u2019 production-grade hardware into a shared testing environment, allowing electrical, thermal, mechanical and software interfaces to be engineered and validated together before deployment.<\/p>\n

Under the anticipated division of responsibilities, Compal will provide the U.S. project site, GPU servers, and liquid cooling systems. Exascale will design the modular data center system, SST-based power architecture and related software systems, and will lead the end-to-end deployment, commissioning, and testing of the platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal is to validate native 800 VDC across a complete data center system,\u201d said Dr. Hoansoo Lee, Chief Executive Officer of Exascale. \u201cCompal\u2019s planned contribution of the site, GPU servers and cooling systems will allow us to test our SST power architecture and modular infrastructure alongside the equipment they are intended to support. That integration is an important step toward commercial deployment.\u201d<\/p>\n
