Oxford Quantum Circuits (OQC) and Digital Realty (NYSE: DLR) have announced the launch of the first Quantum-AI Data Centre in New York City. The center, located at Digital Realty’s JFK10 facility and built with NVIDIA GH200 Grace Hopper Superchips, is a flagship initiative of the UK–US Tech Trade Partnership.

Oxford Instruments NanoScience (OIN) announced that its ProteoxLX dilution refrigerator is integrated into the facility to support OQC’s GENESIS quantum computer. The ProteoxLX provides the ultra-low temperature environment (base temperature <7 mK) and cooling power required to support the device, which features 16 logical qubits. The OIN system is designed for quantum computing scale-up, offering a modular, upgradable platform with features for minimizing noise and integrating complex superconducting qubit devices.

The data center integrates OQC’s GENESIS quantum computer, a logical-era system, with NVIDIA accelerated AI hardware, marking the first quantum computing system deployed in a New York City data center. OQC’s patented dual-rail Dimon qubit technology is said to reduce hardware overheads for error-corrected qubits, supporting scalability for future systems. The integrated platform is intended to unlock new possibilities across critical sectors, including finance (risk modeling, portfolio optimization) and security (simulation, logistics optimization).

Matthew Martin, Managing Director of OIN, noted that the collaboration supports building the infrastructure that will define the next generation of computing. Simon Phillips, CTO of OQC, commented that the contribution supports the center’s goal of creating a hybrid quantum-classical computing capability without requiring additional facility cooling. The deployment reinforces the UK–US Tech Trade Partnership by combining British innovation and American infrastructure.
