DC BLOX is excited to announce its participation in the upcoming Pacific Telecommunications Council‘s Annual Conference, PTC’25, taking place from January 19-22, 2025, in beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii. As a leading digital infrastructure provider in the Southeast, DC BLOX will showcase its integrated data center and fiber network solutions designed to empower hyperscalers, enterprises, communications providers, and technology companies. These solutions not only enhance digital services but also contribute significantly to accelerating economic growth across the Southeast United States.
Key Panel Discussion
One of the highlights of DC BLOX’s presence at PTC’25 will be a panel discussion featuring CEO Jeff Uphues as he explores, “The Mid-Market Advantage: Competing in a Hyperscale World,” on January 21 at 3:00 PM HAT.

Strategic Growth Initiatives
DC BLOX has been making strategic moves to meet the growing demand for digital infrastructure in the Southeast. The company has recently acquired three properties and secured power from regional utilities for new hyperscale-ready campuses in Georgia and South Carolina. Additionally, they are developing four hyperscale edge nodes to support increased network capacity for AI and other hyperscaler applications. Their commitment to building a robust regional dark fiber network is evident through their construction efforts spanning from Atlanta to their new Myrtle Beach cable landing station, enhancing connectivity for both regional and global partners.
Industry Outlook
Looking ahead, DC BLOX executives believe that the digital infrastructure industry is undergoing a generational transition. The expansion of cloud regions around the globe and the rise of generative AI are creating unprecedented demands for digital technology, energy, and communications infrastructure. To meet these challenges, DC BLOX is focusing on adaptive and flexible data center designs, hybrid air and liquid-cooling solutions, and high-capacity fiber networks — where 1728 fibers are becoming increasingly common. They are also exploring innovative energy solutions like Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) to ensure sustainable energy supply meets rising demands.
