DE-CIX’s top 3 resellers in 2019: Angola Cables, Core-Backbone, and GlobeNet

DE-CIX resellers are an integral part of DE-CIX’s interconnection ecosystems worldwide. Without them, fewer networks would peer at DE-CIX’s exchanges, and there would be fewer access points available to reach DE-CIX. Overall, our resellers connect more than 300 networks to our exchanges. In 2019, Angola Cables, Core-Backbone, and GlobeNet were our top 3 resellers, together connecting a large number of networks to the DE-CIX Internet Exchanges. We would like to thank all of our reseller partners, and our top 3 resellers in particular, for the good cooperation in growing our interconnection ecosystems together. Without you, we would not be where we are today. Thank you! 

Benefits of connecting via resellers 

If networks do not have a PoP at a DE-CIX-enabled site, they can connect via a DE-CIX reseller. Our partners offer access to DE-CIX enabled sites from over 500 cities in 80+ countries worldwide.  
Peering via a reseller reduces hardware and colocation costs while providing direct interconnection to up to hundreds of networks. DE-CIX reseller partners usually offer more bandwidth choices, shorter contract terms, and access to more than one DE-CIX Internet Exchange.
