Liquid Cooling Systems

Amphenol Industrial UQD/UQDB high-performance quick disconnect connectors are ideal for high-efficiency thermal management in data centers, EVs, and ESS

Image of Amphenol Industrial Liquid Cooling SystemsAmphenol Industrial liquid cooling systems are a robust solution engineered to meet the growing thermal demands of next-generation electronics. These high-performance quick disconnect connectors are available in universal quick disconnect (UQD) and universal quick disconnect blind-mate (UQDB) models. They are built for mission-critical environments where space, efficiency, and reliability are paramount. Conforming to the Open Compute Project Rev 1.0 specifications, these connectors are optimized for high-flow performance and low pressure drop.

The UQD series offers a compact push-to-connect interface for fast installation and maintenance in constrained rack spaces. Meanwhile, the UQDB series provides blind-mate functionality, enabling seamless connections in hot-swappable, high-density server environments. Both series are engineered with robust sealing and corrosion-resistant materials to ensure long-term durability in harsh thermal management applications.

Amphenol liquid cooling systems help maintain safe operating temperatures in high-wattage electronic systems such as artificial intelligence (AI) servers, edge data centers, EV battery packs, and energy storage systems (ESS). These connectors are designed for system architects and engineers requiring efficient liquid cooling in dense, high-efficiency enclosures. By delivering reliability and ease of use, they help reduce system downtime and maintenance cycles while maximizing thermal transfer efficiency.

Each connector is engineered for compatibility with standard coolants and features high-cycle durability to support continuous use in electrically and environmentally demanding conditions. Designed with short overall length and small diameters, they are ideal for rack-level integration where every millimeter counts. The available port configurations and modular options allow flexibility for OEM-specific designs or retrofits, and Amphenol’s global reputation backs the connectors for rugged interconnect solutions. As server workloads increase and electrification expands across markets, Amphenol Industrial Operations continues to innovate in liquid cooling technology. The UQD and UQDB connectors represent the first wave in a growing portfolio of thermal management solutions designed to support high-performance computing, EV infrastructure, renewable energy systems, and more.

For engineers and procurement professionals seeking leak-free, high-efficiency cooling under pressure, these liquid cooling systems offer a reliable, standards-compliant, and space-saving solution.
