CONNECTIVITY
Delivering critical connections
When it comes to networking and connectivity, it’s important to ensure your provider can deliver advanced, carrier-neutral, networking capabilities in line with the organisation’s needs. For companies operating a multi or hybrid cloud model, connectivity to the right carriers is critical. Companies should be aware that whilst some datacentre providers can build the best high-performance computing platform, without connectivity provisioning on-ramp to other clouds, businesses may not be able to adopt a secure or stable cloud strategy.

If you have a cabinet in a colocation facility then you need Internet connectivity to able to allow your services to be accessed by other Internet users or service providers. IP transit is basically your Internet connection. In many cases IP transit is included in your package by default especially when it comes to cloud and dedicated servers. At Coreix we also bundle IP transit into our colocation cabinets so that you can get up and running as soon as possible.
Features
- Suitable for all clients requiring Internet access from a Coreix facility.
- Layer 3 service.

Details
Metro Ethernet is an Ethernet transport network that provides point-to-point or multipoint connectivity services over a metropolitan area network. These links are normally utilised to link networks together on the same LAN i.e. to provide a layer 2 circuit point to point. Coreix can offer metro services around its facilities and colocation cabinet customers can have the choice of taking IP transit or metro ethernet.
Features
- Suitable for all clients requiring connectivity between facilities, datacentre-to-datacentre.
- Layer 2 service.
- Resilient paths are available.
- VXLAN and QinQ options are available.
- Circuits up to 100Gbps.
Details
A leased-line is a point-to-point connectivity product. The line is uncontended (which means that it’s not shared with any other business or consumer) and is highly secure due to its dedicated nature. It also provides symmetrical data transfer (which means that both upload and download speeds are the same) for a better user experience. The product is designed to securely connect offices or remote locations in addition to expanding your office into a datacentre environment. Services are layer2 and can naturally expand your LAN from the office to the datacentre for example.
Features
- Suitable for connecting offices or other premises to a datacentre address or another office address or remote location.
- Secure
- Layer 2 service.
- Resilient paths are available.
- Circuits up to 40Gbps.

Frequently Asked Questions
We have a full FAQ located here, however here are some commonly asked questions in relation to colocation.
-
What is a Layer 1 service?
The physical layer is responsible for the transmission and reception of raw data between devices via the transmission media. It converts data from bits into electrical, radio or optical signals.
The services are purely a physical connection and have no interfering hardware in between that manipulate the data, thus making these services the most secure.
-
What is a Layer 2 service?
The data link layer provides point-to-point data transfer—a link between two directly connected nodes. It detects and possibly corrects errors that may occur in the physical layer.
These services are utilised to connect networks together i.e. connect two office sites together and keep them on the same LAN.
-
What is a Layer 3 service?
A layer 3 service is basically a fully routed service such as Internet connectivity. We provide IP addressing (IPv4 and/or IPv6) and you have full global Internet routing available via this circuit.
-
What networking equipment do I need to receive IP transit?
If you just require default route transit then any simple layer2 device will suffice since Coreix can do all the routing for you and we can present you an interface with a gateway and an IP allocation. You can plug this in and receive Internet transit.
If you have your own AS number then naturally you will need a BGP enabled router of some form. If you have your own AS number then you probably won't be reading this!
-
Can I use my own AS and IP's with Coreix?
Of course, you can use your own AS number and IP space, our engineers will be more than happy to assist.
