IX-as-a-Service

Launch and operate a carrier-grade Internet Exchange Point under your own brand, powered by LINX, built on infrastructure and expertise we have been running since 1994.

HOW IT WORKS

Powered by LINX

Data centres, network operators and digital infrastructure providers can run a carrier-grade internet exchange under their own brand. You own the IXP, the community and the commercial model. We provide the infrastructure, the tooling and 24/7 NOC support behind it, across three package options and port speeds from 1GE to 400GE.

WHO IT’S FOR

Why run your own exchange?

Offer tenants a carrier-grade internet exchange inside your facility, under your own name, without building an exchange team of your own. LINX designs and sets up the exchange, and runs it for you once it is live.

Your exchange is run by the team behind LINX’s nine exchanges across the UK, US and Africa, bringing more than 30 years of operational experience to your facility from day one.

Bring an internet exchange to your region and keep local traffic local, with LINX running it behind your brand. We have built and operate regional exchanges across the UK, the US and Africa, and bring that experience to every exchange we power.

You own the exchange, the community and the commercial model. We take care of the design, set-up and day-to-day operation.

Add an internet exchange to the infrastructure you already operate, with LINX providing the infrastructure, tooling and expertise to run it. Your team can stay focused on growing the community around the exchange.

Start with the package that fits where you are now and scale as demand grows, backed by an operator that has been running internet exchanges since 1994.
