NetIX celebrates new peak traffic milestone of 5 Tbps

Sofia, Bulgaria – 18th November 2025: NetIX, the multi-award-winning global Internet Exchange and interconnection platform, is proud to announce a major new traffic milestone: the NetIX platform has reached a new peak of 5 terabits per second (Tbps). This achievement marks another significant step in NetIX’s rapid acceleration and continued growth in the global peering marketplace.

Reaching 5 Tbps not only reflects the scale and reliability of the NetIX infrastructure, but also underscores the ongoing trust placed in NetIX by ISPs, carriers, hyperscalers, content delivery networks, and enterprises worldwide. This latest milestone firmly establishes NetIX as one of the top 10 largest Internet Exchanges globally based on peak traffic, as well as the fastest-growing IXP in the world.

2025 has been an exceptional year for NetIX, with the company earning two of the most respected and coveted awards in the telecoms industry:

These recognitions highlight NetIX’s commitment to excellence, innovation, and its unwavering dedication to delivering a high-performance peering environment for its 220+ members.

“Reaching 5 Tbps is a tremendous achievement and a reflection of the robust, resilient, and high-quality platform we’ve built,” said Dean Belev, VP of Connectivity at NetIX. “As the fastest-growing IXP worldwide, this milestone shows the increasing demand for NetIX’s service model, our expanding ecosystem, and the confidence our members place in us every day.”

NetIX continues to strengthen its global footprint, expand into new markets, and enhance its suite of interconnection solutions, from its award-winning Global Internet Exchange and its global Ethernet network consisting of more than 200 on-net data centres, to its IX-as-a-Service solution, which upgrades – or even powers brand new – Internet Exchange deployments across the world.

“As we celebrate this new peak traffic record and our two major industry awards, our focus remains clear,” added Belev. “We will continue to deliver reliable, intelligent, and ultra-efficient interconnection services that help networks grow, optimise performance, and unlock new digital opportunities.”

With traffic surges and its growth accelerating, NetIX has climbed from 4 Tbps to 5 Tbps in just 11 months – a remarkable 25% increase – which reflects the strength of its platform and the trust of the community. NetIX is looking forward to building on this momentum to reach new traffic records in the near future, gaining new members, and continuing to expand the possibilities of global interconnection.
