Following on from the EVPN VXLAN upgrades, NZIX has also completed a major uplift to our Christchurch internet exchange, CHC-IX. The site has seen tremendous growth since launch, with traffic increasing more than ten-fold in just the past three years. With that level of expansion, it was clear that members needed the option to connect at 100G.
In a single overnight maintenance window, the entire CHC-IX switching fabric was replaced at both facilities, and all member ports were migrated. The result is a modern, higher-capacity platform ready to support current and future demand.
If your network has a presence in Christchurch and you’re looking to exchange traffic locally with other CHC-IX member networks, now is the perfect time to order your port – including at 100G.
Order your 100G port for NZD $1250/month from the NZIX Portal now.
