Phoenix NAP Connectivity

Network Access Point

Network connectivity is a critical component of any colocation facility, and our Phoenix datacenter operates with a simple premise – to be the network access point for the city, state, and greater southwestern United States region. A carrier neutral datacenter, Phoenix NAP incorporates the fiber networks of multiple Tier 1 providers into its facility, so clients can select which option best meets their respective needs.

As indicated by our network map, clients can efficiently connect to other locations around the greater Phoenix area to enhance their overall network effectiveness.

IP Transit and Transport Services

Our IP transit and transport services leverage redundant power feeds from separate sources to promote the network performance and reliability that is critical to your business. Additionally, carrier fiber comes from two divergent meet-me vaults into our dedicated cross-connect room, to help streamline connections between carriers and clients. Our meet-me room further enhances this concept by providing carriers with a secure area for their networking equipment.

Featuring a wide selection of available options, Phoenix NAP can provide layer 2 dark fiber, protected and unprotected wavelength, multi-protocol label switching (MPLS), or metro-Ethernet services. To complement these, a range of scalable bandwidth solutions is available offering speeds from a single 1 Mbps connection on up to several 10 Gbps connections, depending on what is required.

Public Peering Exchange

Further reinforcing the commitment to provide a network access point, Phoenix NAP administers a public peering exchange, allowing multiple network providers to interconnect to other networks within a carrier-neutral facility. These interconnections are completed across a shared fabric (layer 2 access technology), and exchanges between networks leverage a single port, enabling a greater number of networks the opportunity to participate.
