Cross connects are physical cables that complete the termination between two different end-points within the CyrusOne data centers.
Cross Connects
Your Connection to the World: These cables enable connectivity between a CyrusOne customer and points outside their network. Connections are enabled with a telecom provider, cloud provider, internet access, CyrusOne Metro & National IX backbones, or another customer’s network.
Integral to Mission Critical Performance: CyrusOne realizes the importance of these connections to our clients as they serve their mission-critical production, disaster recovery environments, and hybrid colocation strategies.
Provisioning in Hours, Not Days: Provisioning cross connects is quick and easy due to the installation of pre-wired intra-facility cabling (IFC) between a customer’s colocation space and the CyrusOne meet me rooms (MMR) which can be ordered directly through the CyrusOne customer service portal.
