EdgeIX, a leading independent operator of settlement-free, multi-lateral layer 2 internet exchanges, is pleased to announce the launch of its first international peering fabric, located in Singapore.

Joe Wooller, EdgeIX Technical Manager, said “Since the launch of EdgeIX in 2020, we have been assessing ways to further enable connectivity in regional markets throughout the Asia Pacific region.

EdgeIX Singapore builds on our foundational service of providing access to our best in class, low-cost, low latency, high bandwidth peering fabric, which benefits network operators, their customers, and the internet community as a whole through the improved delivery of content and services.

Singapore is just the start of where we hope to take EdgeIX, and we will continue to seek growth opportunities for the EdgeIX fabric in 2023.”

EdgeIX Singapore’s first point of presence is located at Equinix SG3, with other locations to follow. The fabric has welcomed 8 inaugural peers who are already connected or undergoing the provisioning process.

Further, in celebration of the launch, EdgeIX will provide all interested network operators with free peering services on EdgeIX Singapore until January 2024. This offer is available immediately across all port speeds - 10G, 40G and 100G - and EdgeIX can facilitate on-demand enablement and provisioning of new or additional peering ports.

If you’re interested in getting connected to the fastest growing internet exchange in Asia Pacific, with connectivity now available at 22 locations, please contact our team via peering@edgeix.net or via our Discord Server.
