OptiCool Partners with Intelisys to Expand Access to High-Efficiency Cooling Across the Channel

Partnership brings two-phase liquid cooling to Intelisys’ nationwide ecosystem of technology advisors, MSPs, and solution providers

WEBSTER, NY – November 13, 2025 – OptiCool Technologies, a leading provider of high-efficiency liquid cooling systems, today announced a new partnership with Intelisys, a ScanSource company and a leading technology services distributor of connectivity and cloud services.

This collaboration marks a major step in OptiCool’s channel-first go-to-market strategy, expanding availability of its two-phase rear-door heat exchanger (RDHx) systems through Intelisys’ national network of telecom agents, managed service providers (MSPs), value-added resellers (VARs), and IT solution providers.

Meeting the Demand for High-Density Cooling

As AI and GPU-driven workloads surge, rising rack densities are forcing partners to rethink how they manage heat, efficiency, and uptime, especially as customers look to boost performance without overhauling their data centers.

OptiCool’s two-phase liquid cooling systems meet this challenge head-on. Mounted directly on standard racks, they remove up to 120 kW of heat per rack while cutting energy use by more than 85% compared with traditional CRAC/CRAH systems. For Intelisys partners, this means a faster, more sustainable path to high-density readiness and a new opportunity to expand their infrastructure portfolios.

A Milestone for the Channel-First Strategy

“Partnering with Intelisys allows us to reach trusted technology advisors who are helping enterprises and service providers modernize their infrastructure,” said Lawrence “LL” Lee, Chief Channel Officer at OptiCool Technologies. “Together, we’re making advanced liquid cooling accessible to every data center, large or small, while helping partners capture new revenue opportunities in the age of AI.”

“We’re excited to welcome OptiCool to our portfolio of supplier partners,” said Paul Constantine, Executive Vice President, Supplier Services, Intelisys. “At Intelisys, we are committed to empowering our sales partners with access to innovative technologies and a robust ecosystem of supplier partners. By bringing OptiCool’s channel-first strategy into our ecosystem, we’re enabling our partners to deliver advanced and efficient cooling solutions to enterprise and mid-market customers, solutions that meet the growing demands of AI, high-performance computing and large-scale workloads.”As the first liquid-cooling manufacturer to join the Intelisys hybrid IT marketplace, OptiCool is redefining how advanced cooling reaches the channel. Partners can now source OptiCool’s full line of liquid cooling systems, expanding access to the company’s two-phase, liquid-cooled RDHx portfolio spanning 30 kW, 60 kW, and 120 kW units. These systems deliver a flexible path from low-density hosting to GPU clusters, giving operators one solution that scales as workloads evolve.
