Technology is moving faster than ever, but the infrastructure supporting it has to last for decades.

That's why [Advanced Business Communications](https://advancedbusinesscomm.com/about-us) created [**Fibreside**](https://www.youtube.com/@Fibreside), a new podcast hosted by the founder of ABC, **Ed O'Brien** and ABC’s partner, **Ken DePalo**. Broadcasting weekly on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube, the Fibreside Podcast delivers expert conversations for consulting engineers, IT leaders, healthcare executives, contractors, commercial real estate developers, and enterprise decision-makers exploring the technologies shaping tomorrow's connected buildings, campuses, and [data centers](https://advancedbusinesscomm.com/blogs-all/fiber-infrastructure-news).

The podcast's mission is to help organizations make smarter infrastructure decisions that reduce risk, lower total cost of ownership, and prepare for future technologies like AI, GPU computing, private 5G, and next-generation fiber networks.

## **Episode 1: The Origin of ABC**

Every great company has a story.

In our first episode, **"The Origin of ABC,"** Ed and Ken take listeners behind the scenes of Advanced Business Communications sharing how decades of experience working alongside industry leaders like [Corning](https://www.corning.com/worldwide/en.html) and [Eaton](https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us.html) shaped [ABC's philosophy](https://advancedbusinesscomm.com/blogs-all/enterprise-infrastructure-abc-history) of designing infrastructure that doesn't just solve today's problems, but prepares organizations for tomorrow's demands.

The conversation covers:

- How ABC became a trusted partner for enterprise infrastructure projects
- Lessons learned from decades of [fiber optic innovation](https://advancedbusinesscomm.com/blogs-all/ribbon-cable-fiber-shortages)
- Why long-term infrastructure planning matters more than ever
- The importance of designing for scalability, reliability, and future growth
- How AI, increasing bandwidth demands, and evolving power requirements are changing the way organizations build their networks

Throughout the discussion, one message remains constant: **build infrastructure once, and build it to last.**
