ITALY'S LARGEST INTERCONNECTION HUB
FOR NEUTRAL COLOCATION
Avalon Campus is the largest carrier-neutral interconnection hub in Italy. It is a complex of ten buildings certified up to Tier IV, connected by proprietary optical fibre and managed as a single, redundant infrastructure. The campus hosts over 170 operators, carriers, ISPs and global OTTs, and offers a peering and colocation ecosystem with direct access to the leading national and international network nodes.
All the rooms are interconnected via two separate optical paths, creating a single large virtual room in which hosted operators and public clouds can interconnect with ease.
Avalon Campus spans three sites (Avalon 1, Avalon 2 and Avalon 3), all interconnected via proprietary optical fibre, creating a single large virtual room in which hosted operators and public clouds can interconnect.
