What customers say

With millions of end-users, for whom the word ‘interruption’ simply doesn’t exist, established network solutions don’t always cut it. That’s why we created our own (...) delivery platform and needed a network partner with not only a solid backbone, but also the right mindset and understanding to support our rapid and often unpredictable growth trajectory.

Andre Reitenbach, CEO, G-Core Labs

    Internet Exchange (IX) Connect use cases

    Operators and Service Providers
    IX Connect provides operators, ISPs and other service providers with access to new peering communities, so they can easy establish new peering relationships directly with partners outside their physical network footprint. This enables them to send / receive large traffic volumes directly with peering partners providing end-to-end routing control and potential commercial benefits.
    Emerging industries
    Customers in new and emerging industries like EdTech, cybersecurity, and gaming can also benefit from the service, provided they have their own Autonomous System (AS) number. The Internet Exchange Connect solution removes the requirement for customers to invest in and manage costly network build out, allowing them to focus on growing their core business.
