Physical and virtual interconnections allow you to quickly, seamlessly and securely connect endpoints within data centres and data centre campuses. Become a part of the interconnection hub within Teraco’s data centre facilities. In a changing Internet landscape, Teraco’s physical interconnect cabling and virtual interconnection system allow for the configuration of flexible and scalable interconnections to over 300 networks and upstream service providers. The service also includes direct access to potentially valuable partners within the established business ecosystems you need to accelerate growth.

Teraco’s physical cross connects minimise networking costs, reduce latency and improves resilience. All facilities have multiple entry points into the building, providing carriers the opportunity to deploy diverse networks within Teraco data centre facilities. All physical interconnects are installed within 72 hours, providing the fastest turn-around at the lowest cost to connect clients, vendors and partners. As Teraco facilities are truly neutral, interconnects are not limited on capacity, opening up a market of opportunities to connect to the world. Teraco has invested in international grade structured cabling systems offering multiple cable and connector types as well as access to multiple meet-me-rooms (MMRs).

Access to multiple connectivity providers and business partners is an inevitable requirement for the modern enterprise. Most wish to avoid the public Internet due to potential latency, throughput, and security issues. These challenges are addressed by private cross connect solutions. Africa Cloud Exchange ensures a direct, predictable connection to your selected service provider. Utilising virtual LAN (vLAN) connections, Africa Cloud Exchange is a highly scalable, fast and cost-effective way to create a hybrid and multi-cloud IT environment. It creates an ideal opportunity to move business critical workloads and latency-sensitive applications to the public cloud.
