Nvidia-Backed Upscale AI Launches Token Fabric for Cross-Vendor AI Chip Networking
Nvidia-backed Upscale AI on Thursday launched Token Fabric, a data-center networking platform aimed at letting customers mix AI chips from different suppliers without integrating their own networking systems.

What happened
Reuters reported that Token Fabric is a hardware-plus-software data-center networking platform: customers can plug AI accelerator chips from different vendors into one network fabric instead of building separate network integrations per supplier. The platform pairs Upscale's own networking silicon with Nvidia's Spectrum-X Ethernet technology.
Upscale AI was valued at $2 billion in June and has raised about $500 million in total. Token Fabric's first products ship this quarter, with a phased full rollout through 2027.
