Not sure which IX fits your traffic? We help you pick
Your traffic, your rules
Stop paying transit for traffic that could go direct.
Fewer hops, faster packets
Traffic goes straight to peered networks instead of bouncing through upstream providers. Your users feel the difference.
Cut your transit bill
Peered traffic is free. The more you peer, the less transit you buy. Some operators cut transit spend by 30-50%.
You control the routes
Choose which prefixes to announce, which peers to accept. No middleman deciding where your packets go.
