Community IX<\/a>, operator of the\u00a0FL-IX\u00a0<\/a>(South Florida) and\u00a0CIX-ATL<\/a>\u00a0(Atlanta) Internet Exchanges, today announces the launch of its newest Internet Exchange (IX) in Northern Virginia, named CIX-NoVA. Service will initially be offered through data centers in Ashburn and Reston, marking Community IX\u2019s first presence in the Northern Virginia market, with additional locations under review.<\/p>\n Driven by customer demand, CIX-NoVA will expand interconnection capabilities in the world\u2019s largest data center and connectivity market. With more than 30Tbps of port capacity already installed across its existing IX locations, Community IX has secured strong interest and committed participants to anchor the new CIX-NoVA exchange.<\/p>\n \u201cSince beginning operations in 2015, we\u2019ve focused on providing a cost-effective, community-driven service to our membership and have experienced tremendous growth in Florida and later in the Atlanta Metro market. Over the years, we\u2019ve been asked what other markets we can offer our service and Northern Virginia has consistently come up in conversation,\u201d said Randy Epstein, co-founder and Executive Director of Community IX.<\/p>\n CIX-NoVA enables ISPs, content providers, and enterprises to exchange IP traffic quickly, cost-effectively, and seamlessly across multiple sites in Northern Virginia. The exchange is currently open to participants with networks in Ashburn and Reston, VA. New 10G and 100G port connections are being offered free for the first year with a two-year agreement. See\u00a0our website for specific locations and details<\/a>. 400G port speeds are also available, though not included in the promotion.<\/p>\n
