Third-Party Fabric leveraging Equinix Fabric

Overview 

Our Third-Party Fabric introduces a new way to connect to LINX. By leveraging fabrics from trusted third-party providers, networks without a Point of Presence (PoP) in data centres where LINX infrastructure is hosted, members can now establish connectivity to LINX’s interconnection hubs, connecting to LINX LON1 (with access to our Peering and MAPS services) 

You can easily connect to LINX through Equinix Fabric, removing the need for a physical presence in London and enabling fast, cost-effective access to our interconnection services and member ecosystem. 

This makes connecting to LINX more accessible, cost-effective, and flexible than ever before, removing the need for physical deployments while improving access to the networks that matter most. 

And the service is semi-automated and easy to configure through your LINX member portal. 

Peering 
Peering has served as the primary method of exchanging internet traffic between networks for decades. Connecting to a LINX interconnection hub allows you to establish peering session with multiple other networks across a single port. Members can setup or remove bilateral peering sessions with networks without the need to reprovision circuits or order additional cross connects.
