A significant milestone: i3D.net network connected to 100 IXPs

i3D.net’s 100th IXP connection has just been made live at the London Internet Exchange’s (LINX), LON2 platform in London. LINX is the leading IXP in the UK and the LON2 network is their secondary LAN in London, designed using alternative vendors to their primary LAN for increased resilience.

Jennifer Holmes, CCO of LINX spoke about i3D.net’s network, “Networks such as i3D.net form a pivotal part of the LINX member community. They understand the profound significance of peering and its complementary role within our expansive interconnection ecosystem. As a legacy member, i3D.net actively engaged in peering at our LON1 network in London and were one of the founding members of LINX NoVA in Northern Virginia — they really are true LINX ambassadors.”

Connecting to 100 IXPs not only strengthens i3D.net’s position as a premier network provider but also unlocks numerous benefits for its clients. Each IXP on the network improves performance, increases reachability and increases scalability for our customers and ultimately positively affects the final user as well.

i3D.net’s consistent pursuit of expanding its network ecosystem showcases its ongoing investment in infrastructure, technical expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction. As the company continues to grow in both capacity and network connections, Managing Director of i3D.net Stijn Koster stated: “i3D.net’s purpose is ‘creating a digital future and connecting global audiences’ and one of the strategies we have is to build out Points of Presence (PoPs), deploying our platform as close as possible to people and businesses. We listen to our customers and end-users to identify where to deploy next. i3D.net’s strength is in its long-term vision. We aim for durable growth. With every new PoP, we connect more people directly to our platform, onboarding local ISPs to our global backbone, and bring our customer’s content closer to the end-user.”
