It can be a powerful driver of qualified leads that accelerate sales. In telecom, data centers and the broader digital ecosystem, smart PR builds trust and positions your company as a thought leader. This credibility turns cold audiences into warm prospects eager to engage. Why PR is the Missing Link in Lead Generation Understanding the true potential of PR is the first step toward transforming it into a strategic lead generation tool. Unlike traditional views, PR’s role extends well beyond exposure to directly influencing buyer behavior. PR amplifies your messaging beyond paid ads and owned media. Third-party validation from media and analysts reduces buyer skepticism. Thought leadership pieces educate prospects, moving them closer to purchase. Common PR Challenges Before you can harness PR’s full potential, it’s important to recognize common missteps that limit its effectiveness — especially when aiming to support lead generation. These are some of the most frequent pitfalls we see: Using PR only for brand visibility, without connecting it to demand generation or pipeline support. Infrequent or generic content that fails to engage decision-makers. Failing to weave PR into every stage of the marketing funnel—from awareness to conversion — missing key touchpoints for influence and amplification. Actionable Ways to Turn PR into Lead Gen With the challenges in mind, there are proven tactics data centers and telecom companies can... --- - Published: 2025-07-28 - Modified: 2025-07-28 - URL: https://www.jsa.net/onix-expands-ai-customer-engagement-capabilities-with-ujet-services-acquisition/ - Categories: Agentic AI, acquisitions, AI - Tags: Onix Onix has announced the acquisition of the professional services business unit of UJET, a cloud-native Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) provider. This move reinforces Onix’s leadership in AI-powered customer engagement and further strengthens its position as a premier Google Cloud partner.

By bringing UJET’s professional services team into the fold, Onix gains enhanced capabilities in deploying next-generation AI-driven customer experience solutions, particularly through the CES ecosystem, Agentspace, and its proprietary agentic AI platform. The combined offering will support organizations in deploying intelligent, cost-effective contact center applications that reduce total cost of ownership while enhancing customer satisfaction and scaling AI transformation across high-volume environments.

The high demand for AI-driven compute capacity requires data centers to operate with unwavering reliability, creating a booming market for AI-adjacent businesses that support this growth.   Recognizing this critical and rapidly accelerating demand, KROHNE, a global leader in process instrumentation with over a century of industrial experience, has made a significant strategic commitment to the rapidly growing U. S. data center sector. This move positions KROHNE to support the rapid increase in infrastructure needed for AI enablement. AI data centers require robust, precise, and dependable cooling infrastructure, especially for high-compute AI chipsets that generate immense heat. KROHNE is dedicating a substantial portion of its annual production capacity to meet this escalating need. Their magnetic flow meters, or magmeters, are integral to chilled water applications, which are crucial for cooling processors and ensuring the stability of technology operations.   What sets KROHNE apart is its deeply ingrained 'born reliable, built to last' philosophy. Drawing on a century-long legacy of challenging industrial process environments, such as chemical and wastewater facilities, KROHNE engineers products designed to last 20 to 30 years. Utilizing industrial-grade materials such as stainless steel and carbon steel, their products offer a distinct advantage over typical commercial-grade components. This pedigree ensures the accuracy and robustness critical for data center uptime, where precise flow measurement directly impacts operational efficiency and supports crucial cooling infrastructure.

Rethinking Traditional Network Infrastructure for AI and Cloud Now is the time for enterprises to critically assess if their existing network infrastructure can support this level of demand. AI workloads are completely reshaping how enterprise networks need to perform daily. With the consistent requirement of access to data, real-time processes and seamless communication, data-intensive workflows can generate massive traffic patterns which require high-bandwidth and low latency to operate smoothly.   What’s more, the traffic patterns fluctuate, so the bandwidth requirements are not static. Traditionally, networks aren’t that agile to adapt that quickly.   Why It Matters Now AI and cloud applications demand more from your network — more bandwidth, lower latency and continuous availability.

It’s a common headache for IT teams, especially in regions like upstate South Carolina, where infrastructure choices can be limited. That’s changing. DartPoints, a data center operator with a growing footprint across the Southeast, has teamed up with Megaport, a global provider of virtual networking tools, to bring direct cloud access to Greenville. For the first time, businesses in the area can plug directly into major cloud services like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, without their data ever leaving town. How DartPoints and Megaport Deliver Seamless Cloud Connectivity Here’s how it works: Megaport installs a virtual switching fabric inside DartPoints’ Greenville facility. That switch connects to hundreds of other data centers around the world, including dozens of cloud onramps. Once you're plugged into that switch, you can point traffic to any of those destinations through a private connection. Think of it like replacing a congested highway route with a dedicated express lane. There’s no need to route traffic through distant cities or rely on unpredictable internet paths.

Despite increasing budgets and more marketing channels, many companies struggle to consistently attract qualified leads that convert. Why is this happening? Common Lead Gen Pitfalls in Digital Infrastructure Marketing Misaligned Messaging:In complex industries like telecom and data centers, marketing messages often fall into jargon-heavy, technical descriptions that fail to connect with buyer needs. The result? Prospects scroll past without engagement. Fragmented Campaigns:Many companies run siloed marketing and PR efforts that don’t speak to each other. This leads to missed opportunities for amplifying reach and nurturing prospects through the sales funnel. Lack of Targeting Precision:Broad outreach to “everyone” in the digital ecosystem wastes resources and dilutes impact. Successful lead generation requires sharp targeting based on data-backed personas and buyer journeys. Underutilized PR:Public Relations isn’t just for brand awareness anymore—it’s a critical lead generation engine. But many digital infrastructure marketers overlook how strategic media placement, analyst relations and thought leadership can warm prospects and build credibility. Actionable Steps You Can Take Today Generating leads effectively starts with clear, focused efforts. Here are some practical actions digital infrastructure marketers can implement immediately to improve their lead generation outcomes: Audit Your Current Messaging:Review your website, collateral, and campaigns. Are your value propositions clear and customer-centric? If you hear “technical jargon” from prospects, it’s time to simplify. Align Marketing and PR:Break down silos internally.... --- - Published: 2025-07-15 - Modified: 2025-07-15 - URL: https://www.jsa.net/big-moves-in-florida-fiber-south-reach-networks-joins-blue-owl-digital-infrastructure/ - Categories: Industry News, acquisitions - Tags: dark fiber, Dark Fiber & Infrastructure, Mike Sevret, Scott Bergs, South Reach Networks, subsea cable, subsea communications, telecom acquisition What an exciting update from South Reach Networks (SRN)!

While growth opportunities abound, the challenge of differentiation grows more intense by the day. If your brand feels lost in the shuffle, you’re not alone. Many digital infrastructure marketers struggle to create meaningful differentiation beyond superficial visuals and generic claims. Why Differentiation Matters More Than Ever In markets saturated with providers touting “reliable” and “scalable” solutions, buyers are overwhelmed with similar messaging. Without a distinct and authentic brand voice, your company risks blending into the background, losing valuable mindshare — and, ultimately, business. Common Barriers to Brand Differentiation Overreliance on Technical Specs:Focusing only on specs and features rather than the customer’s pain points and business outcomes. Lack of Unified Narrative:Marketing, PR and sales teams often tell disconnected stories that confuse rather than clarify. Ignoring Emotional Connection:In B2B, emotional factors like trust, reliability and vision still drive decisions, but brands rarely tap into these. Actionable Steps to Differentiate Your Brand Effective differentiation starts with a deep understanding of your audience and authentic storytelling. Identify Your Unique Value Proposition:Go beyond features. What specific problems do you solve? How do you improve your customers’ business? Make this the cornerstone of your messaging. Develop a Consistent Brand Narrative:Align marketing, PR and sales around a clear story that highlights your expertise, innovation, and commitment to customer success. Showcase Real Customer Success:Use case studies, testimonials and executive thought leadership to build credibility and emotional resonance.

Every year the Wireless Infrastructure Association's annual ConnectX conference spotlights the best and the brightest minds in the U. S. cell tower industry. This year our own Dyanne Williamson was onsite at the May 12th-14th event in Chicago to take advantage of the insightful presentations and speaker sessions. One such session addressed the fact that many enterprises have realized mobile network operators are not going to build a Distributed Antennae System (DAS) for them. But they are nonetheless determined to provide 5G service for their employees and customers. For many, working with private network specialists to deploy multi-operator network infrastructure is the solution. Pros and Cons What are the benefits and drawbacks for carriers interested in connecting to these systems? What are the opportunities and challenges for enterprise customers? First, let’s take look at two kinds of multi-operator network solutions. There are: 1) Multi-Operator Radio Access Network (MORAN) 2) Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN) Both approaches allow multiple operators to share equipment, but they differ in how they manage spectrum and network control. The beauty of these solutions is that carriers can connect to them without making big financial investments. Plus, an enterprise can deploy its own applications on the network. Mobile subscribers transition seamlessly to these private networks when they enter the area, but only if their carrier has made the decision to connect.   Upward Trend Eric McClanahan, Sr. Director Private 5G Networks at Verizon, noted that the company is seeing lot of interest and activity in private networks.... --- - Published: 2025-06-12 - Modified: 2025-06-12 - URL: https://www.jsa.net/1623-farnam-expands-edge-power-in-omaha-with-final-two-floors-now-complete/ - Categories: Data Centers, Industry News - Tags: 1623 Farnam Big moves are happening in the Midwest! 1623 Farnam, the edge interconnection hub strategically located in downtown Omaha, has just announced the completion of the final two floors in its facility — and the news is a game-changer for enterprises, cloud providers and content platforms looking for scalable, low-latency network connectivity.

But this one, located in the PJM Interconnection region spanning 13 states, including Ohio, Illinois, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey, doesn’t involve a catastrophic weather event, but rather a growing imbalance between electricity supply and demand that threatens the lifeblood of the manufacturing industry. The PJM Region Special Report – Navigating the Manufacturing Power Crisis, produced by Bloom Energy, examines the conflicting forces underlying energy challenges in the region, a critical area serving 65 million people. The report also provides important information on outage resilience, power quality and other key factors to help manufacturers successfully navigate energy solutions. Various Factors Underlie Energy Gaps Surging power needs, an aging U. S. utility grid badly in need of expansion, along with the retirement of coal and gas facilities, have produced an escalating mismatchbetween electricity demand and supply in both the PJM region and nationwide. While utility providers are working to expand the grid, demand is rising much faster than their construction timelines can accommodate. That difference could translate into financial pressure for manufacturers and other customers as reflected in recent PJM capacity auctions, where costs escalated from $2. 2 billion to $14. 7 billion, a 570% increase. Manufacturing Downtime Carries a High Price Tag Downtime carries a price, and in manufacturing, that price adds up fast. Known as the Value of Lost Load (VoLL), this metric quantifies the economic impact of power interruptions, based on various industry factors, including... --- - Published: 2025-06-09 - Modified: 2025-06-09 - URL: https://www.jsa.net/how-veterans-are-powering-the-digital-infrastructure-workforce/ - Categories: Insights - Tags: Data Movers The talent gap in digital infrastructure is real – and growing.
