The consortium brings together companies specializing in GPUs, power equipment, cooling, architecture and business development.\n\nThe partnership covers AIDC projects from power demand and site assessment through infrastructure development. The company will use superconducting systems for external grids and bus ducts and fiber-optic cables for internal networks.\n\nIts system can deliver power comparable to a 154-kilovolt high-voltage system using 23-kilovolt medium-voltage lines. This enables existing substations to be used, reducing the need for new substations and installation space. LS Cable was the first company in the world to commercialize the system.\n\nOther AFF members support AIDC development in their respective fields. Naewae Architects handles design, Ezwell AI GPU and AI infrastructure platforms, Woojin Electric power equipment, Enfield P&D business development, and Iljin E&S cooling and renewable energy systems.\n\nLS Cable plans to expand beyond supplying individual products to proposing power infrastructure solutions from the early stages of AIDC development.\n\n“AIDC growth is making access to large-scale power a key challenge,” an LS Cable official said. “We will use superconducting technology to set a new standard for AIDC power infrastructure.”\n\njyoungseon8@heraldcorp.com", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ls-cable-targets-ai-data-center-infrastructure-with-superconducting-technology", "canonical_source": "https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10859210", "published_at": "2026-09-01 08:10:56+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-01 08:22:05.620561+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-infrastructure"], "entities": ["LS Cable & System", "AI Factory Frontier", "Naewae Architects", "Ezwell AI", "Woojin Electric", "Enfield P&D", "Iljin E&S"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ls-cable-targets-ai-data-center-infrastructure-with-superconducting-technology", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ls-cable-targets-ai-data-center-infrastructure-with-superconducting-technology.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ls-cable-targets-ai-data-center-infrastructure-with-superconducting-technology.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ls-cable-targets-ai-data-center-infrastructure-with-superconducting-technology.jsonld"}}
