Data centre locations
Three data centre locations across Accra
Accessible from Onix, PAIX and Digital Realty. Connect at any site and reach every other network on the exchange through a single port.
Why networks connect in Accra
Six subsea cable systems
Six international subsea cable systems land in Ghana, giving Accra direct reach to Europe, the Americas and the rest of Africa.
Keep local traffic local
Traffic between Ghanaian and West African networks stays in the region, reducing reliance on distant exchange points and improving performance for local users.
Fully redundant multi-site fabric
Networks at any of the three sites meet through a single cross connect, with redundancy built into the fabric rather than bolted on.
Data sovereignty
Keeping Ghanaian traffic on Ghanaian infrastructure supports local businesses and gives networks more control over where their data travels.
Available at LINX Accra
Connect directly with hundreds of networks to exchange traffic. Direct interconnection lowers latency, gives you greater control over how traffic flows, and makes it simple to expand as demand grows.
Separate and manage multiple network connections over a single physical port, keeping private traffic isolated within LINX infrastructure while simplifying how you manage it.
A private Layer 2 network connecting multiple sites, partners or customers, for controlled traffic exchange within LINX infrastructure.
LINX Protect is free to all members peering via our route servers. It identifies malicious traffic during an attack and drops it before it reaches your infrastructure, using Remotely Triggered Black Hole filtering.
