Summary
Patrick Bet David breaks down a new partnership where Span and Nvidia are testing XFRA nodes, compact data center boxes bolted next to your HVAC that tap unused grid capacity through Span smart panels and network together to mimic a small or midsize AI data center.

| 0:00.0 | Let me tell you what Nvidia on the Palti Group, which we had on the podcast here before, he's great at what he does, but the Palti Group and NVIDIA had a conversation, and apparently they're starting a startup, they're helping the startup put many data centers on homes. So let me say this one more time. So imagine you have a house, and you're buying a house, and Nvidia and Pulte Group is saying, hey, let us build a small data center on top of your house. |
| 0:23.9 | Wait, what? |
| 0:24.8 | Yes. |
| 0:25.5 | Is this real? |
| 0:26.5 | Apparently it is. |
| 0:27.2 | Span of California-based startup has developed a small fractional data center or nodes called the XFRA Unis. |
| 0:33.7 | The idea is to take advantage of unused electrical capacity on local grids, which dispensed |
| 0:38.6 | smart panels can pinpoint, Nvidia, GPUs are powering the units and the Palti group is testing |
| 0:45.3 | the system in a handful of communities. Tom, your thoughts on the story. |
| 0:49.7 | Well, you know, it's really interesting is, you know, you you started with homes and as we started getting |
| 0:55.4 | things like i'll say something low voltage wiring what is low voltage wiring i don't understand that |
| 1:00.2 | guess what that was that was fiber and stuff that were in your walls so suddenly a pulte group and |
| 1:05.5 | others were adding that to your home and so you could do it for alarms they were pre-wiring by windows |
| 1:10.4 | and things like this so that when you called ADP and have some in there it for alarms. They were pre-wiring by windows and things like this |
| 1:11.2 | so that when you called ADP and have some in there, it's done. So home building has tried to follow |
| 1:17.2 | the waves of services that people want to put into homes, right? You don't find, you know, |
| 1:22.7 | coax going room to room anymore because Wi-Fi powers the whole place. You find things coming |
| 1:27.2 | up to like a closet |
| 1:28.2 | where everything can be secured in there. And what I think what they're doing here is they are |
| 1:34.3 | making it possible to put those nodes up right on the house. And now you say to your house, |
| 1:39.9 | hey, your house is AI ready if you're going to have a small, you know, LMS or you're going to have |
| 1:44.9 | services, or maybe you're working from home or you have a home office. You're not going to have |
