NVIDIA and Cisco Push the Enterprise AI Factory Into the Rack-Scale Era
SiliconANGLE, Tuesday, August 25th, 2026
Cisco and NVIDIA extend their Secure AI Factory partnership to racks drawing more than 200 kilowatts.
The Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA has been expanded into the rack-scale era, letting enterprises deploy AI across their infrastructure with stronger operational capabilities.
The solution now integrates liquid cooling that supports racks beyond 200 kilowatts for reasoning, agentic AI, and trillion-parameter training.
It pairs NVIDIA Spectrum-X switch silicon with Cisco operating systems and adds integration with Cisco Nexus One management and Cisco Cloud Control for agentic IT operations. Executives frame it as a complete AI factory addressing the gap between buying GPUs and running them in production.
