Huawei Atlas 950 SuperPoD
Huawei's 1,024-card Atlas 950 SuperPoD as shown at WAIC 2026: 16 compute cabinets plus 4 UnifiedBus interconnect cabinets (44OU each), up to 1,024 Ascend 950DT, 1,024 x 96 GB on-chip memory at 4.0 TB/s, 1 EFLOPS mxFP8/FP8/HiF8 and 2 EFLOPS mxFP4, 1.72 PB/s total scale-up bandwidth, 256 TB globally addressable memory, fully liquid cooled. Huawei's HC2025 keynote of 18 September 2025 described an 8,192-card configuration of the same product delivering 8 EFLOPS FP8 and 16 EFLOPS FP4. Huawei states no dense or sparse basis for any of these figures. POWER: Huawei publishes no power rating for this machine at either the 1,024-card or the 8,192-card scale. Its only first-party page for the 1,024-card unit (huawei.com/cn/news/2026/7/atlas-950-superpod) carries no watt line at all, the e.huawei.com SuperPoD catalogue does not list the Atlas 950 yet, and Huawei has never published a chip-level power figure for any Ascend part. The 100 kW previously stored here cannot be a whole-SuperPoD rating, since 100 kW over 1,024 cards is 98 W per card; a per-cabinet reading would be arithmetically plausible against the 16 compute cabinets, but no Huawei source has been found for it at any scope, so nothing is stored rather than a rescaled guess.

Where a vendor states a basis, the figure shown is the dense one, and any figure it publishes is listed separately. Vendors commonly headline the sparse number instead: for NVIDIA's 2:4 structured sparsity that is exactly twice the dense figure, though other vendors' sparse modes do not all follow that ratio.
