The companies say they plan to create an open industry specification for USFP through an upcoming community-led multi-source project, and that they are working with TE Connectivity and Amphenol on USFP cages, connectors, and modules. The release describes the first USFP-based transceivers as planned and gives no availability date; the specification has not yet been published. https://unitedstatesofamericasuperintelligence.com/news/nvidia-contributes-vera-rubin-designs-to-ocp/ https://unitedstatesofamericasuperintelligence.com/news/nvidia-contributes-vera-rubin-designs-to-ocp/ Tue, 13 Oct 2026 12:00:00 GMT governance In an October 12, 2026 blog post tied to the OCP Global Summit, NVIDIA said it contributed Vera Rubin rack and compute tray designs to the Open Compute Project through its MGX architecture. The post says NVIDIA joined AMD, Google, and Meta at OCP to publish a new open specification, and describes the Open Data Center Specification v0.7 as a blueprint for AI factory facility design. It says the OCP Grid Resilience Specification was published by Google, Meta, Microsoft, and NVIDIA, and that NVIDIA expanded DSX OS with open-source components for configuring networks and validating clusters, without naming a license for them.
