We run cable landing stations across Africa, so yes, we do use DC for
those as well. Very familiar with the use-case.

We just find AC simpler and easier to work with at 3rd party data
centres as well as Metro commercial buildings, for routers, switches,
servers and such appliances. Dropping a UPS at those sites is far
simpler than deploying DC.

Mobile networks use DC heavily, this is well-known. Which is why I said,
this box was made for them.
