DE-CIX New York launch their East coast Exchange in typical NYC style!

IX Reach, the global leading provider of wholesale carrier services, connectivity solutions and specialists in remote peering, was announced as one of the first resellers of DE-CIX New York. The German IXP recently launched its highly popular and successful peering model in the US, thus enabling local networks to keep their transit costs down and keep traffic within the region by peering.

On March 27th 2014, DE-CIX hosted a launch party to mark the opening of their East coast Exchange. The event took place in the very sleek and modern 'W New York Downtown' hotel on the top floor, enabling the 100+ guests to take in the stunning New York skyline while sipping a cocktail.
