ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DC BLOX, a leading provider of connected data centers and fiber network solutions across the Southeastern United States, announced today its plans to build a second subsea Cable Landing Station (CLS) campus in Palm Coast, Florida. This new location will be the newest global network node supporting international data communications. DC BLOX announces its plans to build a second subsea CLS campus in Palm Coast, Florida! The new campus will complement DC BLOX's first subsea CLS in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and is expected to be operational by Q1 2027. The Palm Coast CLS campus will provide global access to the US through a diverse Southeast location, distinct from existing Northern, Mid-Atlantic, and Southern cable landings, ensuring more resilient and reliable international communications. The new facility aligns with industry developments driven by hyperscalers' ambitious plans to expand international communications infrastructure while offering the key benefits of enhanced route diversification and direct connectivity to key markets. The Palm Coast CLS campus, anchored by the recently announced Sol cable to Spain, will support five additional subsea cables that will land in Flagler Beach, Florida, and connect terrestrially to the CLS campus in Palm Coast. The new campus will complement DC BLOX's first subsea cable landing station in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and is expected to be operational by Q1 2027. The Sol cable that anchors the campus, announced by Google today, connects Palm Coast to Bermuda, the Azores, and Spain. The Sol cable is a high-capacity cable designed for the demands of cloud and AI, is Florida's first direct connection to Europe since 1999, and it will be the only cable in service between Florida and Europe when it's lit. Key Features of DC BLOX's Palm Coast CLS Capacity for Hyperscale and Carrier Needs: Designed to support full colocation services, the campus will have capacity for six high-capacity subsea cables. Strategic Location: Positioned to enhance connectivity and diversification among subsea cable landings, with direct access to the Southeast's growing digital infrastructure ecosystem. Future-Ready Infrastructure: Built on over 20 acres to accommodate additional expansion, with state-of-the-art reliability, design, and sustainability. 'Florida is once again at the forefront of strengthening our nation's digital infrastructure. The anchoring of the Sol subsea cable in our state is a testament to our state's commitment to fostering an environment that is ripe for technological investment and innovation. We are proud to partner with companies like Google and DC BLOX on strategic infrastructure projects that will support the future of AI innovation and bring tangible benefits to our communities and the entire Sunshine State.' – J. Alex Kelly, Florida Secretary of Commerce 'The Sol subsea cable's arrival in Palm Coast will advance Florida's position as a technology destination and state-of-the-art connectivity hub, putting the Sunshine State at the forefront of digital infrastructure and accelerating AI in the U.S. We look forward to collaborating with DC BLOX to increase network reliability and resilience in Florida, the United States and across the Atlantic.' - Brian Quigley, VP, Global Network Infrastructure, Google Cloud 'The demand for global communications infrastructure continues to grow as hyperscalers expand into new international markets and invest in subsea cables to meet the growing requirements for cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and global data exchange. With the development of our second cable landing station campus located in Florida, DC BLOX reaffirms its commitment to delivering innovative, high-capacity infrastructure solutions that empower global connectivity and drive economic growth in the Southeast.' - Chris Gatch, Chief Revenue Officer, DC BLOX 'This is a landmark moment for Palm Coast, Flagler Beach, and Flagler County, and it's a clear signal that we are a community of the future, investing in our economic development and vitality. The Sol subsea cable is more than just infrastructure; it's a gateway to unprecedented global connectivity that will attract further high-caliber industries that our residents deserve. We are not just putting Palm Coast and our community on the map; we are building a direct route to the world's digital economy, ensuring a prosperous and dynamic future for our community.' – Theresa Carli Pontieri, Palm Coast Vice Mayor The Palm Coast Campus reflects DC BLOX's commitment to building foundational digital infrastructure that supports the Southeast's rapid population and business growth.

Mercedes-Benz EQS was ahead of its time, says design chief
Gorden Wagener, chief designer at Mercedes-Benz, has gone in to bat for the EQS, saying its tepid sales may be due to marketing, positioning and timing. Regarding its controversial streamlined shape, Mr Wagener told Autocar, 'I think the EQS is probably 10 years too early.' The design chief also believes the EQS shouldn't have been pitched as the electric equivalent of the S-Class. He defended the EQS as a 'very progressive car', but noted 'it was not originally designed as a chauffeur limousine' which typically have a 'long hood' to denote its status. 'Maybe we should have marketed it differently, more like a futuristic CLS, S-Class coupe or something like that,' Mr Wagener mused.

Supplied Credit: CarExpert Despite this, the car's 2024 facelift made the design a little bit more traditional by junking the faux grille featuring a large three-pointed star in the middle. It was replaced by a new faux grille with multiple horizontal slats bisected by a vertical bar, mimicking the look of a traditional S-Class. There's even a classic three-pointed star mounted as a hood ornament. The EQS won't head into a second generation, instead it will be replaced with an S-Class EV. Although it might feature a different platform to the petrol- and diesel-powered S-Class models, it will share styling and will use the well-established nameplate. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert Supplied Credit: CarExpert The controversial styling of the EQE, EQE SUV, EQS, and EQS SUV will be retired when those models reach the end of their lifecycle. Indeed, the whole EQ range will slowly sail off into the sunset. Instead of offering electric vehicles as standalone models, Mercedes-Benz will put EV drivetrains into established model lines. The third-generation CLA, launched earlier this year, features both EV and mild-hybrid drivetrains. Similarly there will also be EV drivetrain options for the next-generation C-Class and GLC.
