Top Trends in MV Connector Technology for Energy Efficient Data Centers

As data centers evolve to meet the demands of 5G, AI, and cloud computing, energy efficiency has emerged as a non-negotiable priority. Medium Voltage (MV) bolted cable lugs—critical components in power distribution systems—are undergoing significant innovations to support this shift. From reducing energy loss to enhancing reliability, here are the top trends shaping MV connector technology for next generation, energy-efficient data centers.

1. The Shift Toward Medium-Voltage Power Distribution

To meet soaring power demand and reduce energy losses, data centers are increasingly adopting medium-voltage power solutions instead of traditional low-voltage architectures. Operating at voltages between approximately 1 kV and 36 kV, MV systems enable power to be delivered with lower current, reduced resistive losses, and smaller conductor sizes — all directly contributing to improved energy efficiency and lower carbon footprints.

Consequently, MV bolted cable lugs — including terminations, joints, and switchgear interfaces — are critical components for managing these higher voltage levels safely and efficiently.

2. High-Efficiency MV Connectors to Minimize Losses

The core purpose of MV connector technology is to ensure high-efficiency power transfer with minimal losses. Low-resistance contact surfaces, precision-engineered interfaces, and optimized insulation materials help minimize energy lost as heat. This not only improves overall Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) but also reduces the thermal load on cooling systems — an important cost and energy factor for data centers. Connector manufacturers are increasingly using advanced alloys and low-impedance contact designs to improve conductivity and decrease heat generation — a trend mirrored across both MV and LV connector markets.

3. Advanced Materials and Structural Improvements

Energy efficiency gains often start with materials:

Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation has become a standard for MV applications due to its high thermal stability and low dielectric losses.

MV bolted cable lugs are quietly becoming a strategic component of the modern data center:

  • Efficient power delivery with reduced energy loss
  • Smart, digital integration for predictive monitoring
  • Sustainable material innovations that align with ESG goals
  • Flexible, modular designs that support rapid scaling
  • Support for next-gen power architectures (MVDC and hybrid)

As data centers continue to scale to support cloud computing, AI workloads, and hyperscale infrastructure, energy efficiency has become a top priority. Power losses, downtime risks, and installation complexity directly affect operational costs and sustainability goals. So that’s why MV bolted cable connectors play a critical and important role.
