Ardent Networks Inc. is expanding its distribution partnership with Vertiv to offer a broader range of critical power and thermal management solutions in the Philippines. The expanded portfolio covers uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, cooling technologies, and liquid cooling solutions for businesses, IT infrastructure, and data centers.
Why it matters: As businesses depend more on digital services, reliable power and effective cooling are essential to keeping IT systems running. The expanded partnership gives Ardent Networks’ channel partners access to more Vertiv solutions for different infrastructure requirements, from power protection for business operations to high-capacity systems for demanding data center environments.
The details: The expanded portfolio includes UPS systems designed for different power loads and applications. These include the Vertiv PowerUPS 9000, Vertiv Liebert EXS, Vertiv Liebert EXM2, Vertiv Liebert APM, and Vertiv Liebert EXL S1.
Ardent Networks will also distribute Vertiv thermal management solutions, including the Liebert DM Series and Liebert CRV systems, as well as the Vertiv CoolChip Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) family for liquid cooling deployments.
Together, these products broaden the range of infrastructure technologies available through Ardent Networks. The company said the expanded selection will help its distribution partners address the needs of businesses of different sizes and support various IT environments.
The partnership expansion was marked by a ceremonial signing between the two companies, formalizing the next stage of their collaboration in the Philippine market.
The bigger picture: Digital infrastructure requirements continue to evolve as organizations seek greater uptime, efficiency, scalability, and operational resilience. Power protection and thermal management are important parts of this effort, particularly in environments where equipment must operate reliably.
The addition of higher-capacity UPS systems and advanced cooling technologies also gives channel partners more options when serving customers with demanding infrastructure requirements, including data center deployments.
Between the lines: The expanded portfolio gives Ardent Networks a wider range of Vertiv products to offer its channel partners, potentially allowing them to address more infrastructure projects through a single distribution relationship. The announcement, however, does not specify sales targets, investment figures, or timelines for the rollout of individual products.
Ardent Networks Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Ricky Lopez said the expansion would strengthen the company’s ability to provide channel partners with solutions covering power protection, UPS systems, cooling, and thermal management.
Vertiv Philippines Director of Sales Management and Country Head Nico Echavarria added that reliable power and efficient thermal management are essential for business-critical applications and future digital growth. He said the expanded collaboration would help channel partners serve customers with infrastructure designed for performance, resilience, and scalability.
For Filipinos: The partnership is primarily aimed at businesses and technology channel partners rather than individual consumers. Organizations looking to build or upgrade IT infrastructure will have access to a wider range of Vertiv power and cooling products through Ardent Networks’ distribution network.
Ardent Networks distributes technology solutions across networking, cybersecurity, data center, cloud, and critical infrastructure categories in the Philippines.
What’s next: Ardent Networks and Vertiv will continue their collaboration to make Vertiv’s critical digital infrastructure portfolio more accessible to Philippine businesses and channel partners. The companies have not announced specific timelines for the availability of individual solutions under the expanded offering.
The Bottom Line: Ardent Networks is broadening its Vertiv distribution portfolio in the Philippines with additional UPS, thermal management, and liquid cooling solutions. The expansion gives channel partners more options for meeting business and data center infrastructure requirements as demand for reliable digital systems grows.
