INTERCONNECTION SERVICES: Equinix Exchange™

Equinix Exchange™ is a bundled offering that enables the interconnection of ISPs, content providers and enterprises. Based on a gigabit Ethernet central switching fabric, the Exchange service allows ISPs and content companies to trade traffic, or peer, directly with each other to significantly reduce cost and improve performance. With this infrastructure, customers can connect and/or peer at speeds ranging from 10/100 megabits to 10 gigabit.

Eliminate The Transit Middleman

Instead of paying huge fees to transit providers, customers can choose Equinix Exchange for direct network access and peer at speeds ranging from 100 Mbps to 10 Gbps. By circumventing the transit middleman, customers can avoid latency and packet loss, common problems among transit providers.

Enhanced Speed and Reliability of Traffic Exchange

Because Equinix IBX centers are network-neutral, customers can use Equinix Exchange to interconnect easily with all of the global Tier 1 networks and improve the speed and reliability of traffic exchange.

Establish a Presence in an IBX Quickly

Equinix Exchange is ideal for content and enterprise companies looking to boost network performance while maintaining a smaller data center footprint. Equinix offers several service-based Exchange offerings that include an Ethernet Port, a half-rack, power, two cross connects and one Unicast Peering VLAN.
