Gateway to Europe

Gateway to Europe

When a network connects to Marseille via a sea cable, it's not for accessing local content but for reaching European networks and content. Typically, this involves establishing waves from Marseille to other key European hubs like Frankfurt or Amsterdam. Besides the expenses for these connections and equipment, the solution relies on long-distance wave(s), which not only poses significant risks in case of disruption but also hairpins traffic destined for other destinations.

Our proposition offers a simpler alternative.
By joining us in Marseille, you gain redundant connections across Europe without limiting you to specific destinations or relying on a single wave.

In case of disruptions, our full meshed network automatically reroutes traffic, ensuring consistent connectivity without the complexity and expense of constructing an entire network from Marseille. NL-ix acts as an extension of your network, already facilitating connections across Europe, making expansion more straightforward and cost-effective.

Why connect to Marseille?

Connecting to the NL-ix network in Marseille creates instant access to all major content/CDN/hosting providers in Europe across 95 PoPs in 16 metros and 8 countries.

The strategic location of the Marseille PoP, in combination with the distributed nature of the NL-ix fabric, creates opportunities for content networks and eyeballs from Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East to peer with each other and exchange content unavailable in their native regions.
