Neutral colocation
The Colocation service is addressed to all IXP members that need housing space for their devices in one of the data centers where Ge-DIX is present; shared cabling facilities are provided, in order to set up physical interconnections towards other Ge-DIX services or to provide connectivity to other IXP members that are hosted inside the Ge-DIX facilities.
Prices are available after sending a quote request to info@ge-dix.net

Private Network Interconnects
Datacenters (actually only Liguria Digitale) are provided with a distributed PNI infrastructure that enables any two racks in the datacenters to connect each other in fiber technology.
In order to activate new cross-connections to other racks, each newly installed rack has to be connected to the nearest rack terminal by means of structured (MPO) cabling that includes an optical trunk terminating on a demarcation patch-panel. All cross-connects will then be deployed inside the PNI infrastructure, as fiber patches between demarcation patch-panels.
