WHY LON2

Engineered for resilience

Built-in resilience

LON2’s leaf-spine architecture has no single point of failure. Traffic re-routes automatically, keeping your network connected even when individual links or nodes encounter issues.

Diverse from LON1

LON2 runs on different hardware and software to LON1, so connecting to both gives you genuine diversity across our two London LANs.

Lower latency and shorter paths

LON2 makes the route between you and other networks more direct: fewer hops, shorter paths and traffic that stays closer to the end user.

Redundancy across London

Being present at more than one LON2 site gives you genuine diversity and strengthens your overall redundancy.

OUR SERVICES

Available at LON2

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.

Explore Peering

Separate and manage multiple network connections over a single physical port, keeping private traffic isolated within LINX infrastructure while simplifying how you manage it.

Explore Private VLAN

A private Layer 2 network connecting multiple sites, partners or customers, for controlled traffic exchange within LINX infrastructure.

Explore Closed User Group

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.
