At the heart of Telx colocation centers are rooms that contain passive interconnection panels to support circuit interconnections of every physical media type. It is through these simple cross connections that Telx empowers customers to buy, to sell, to exchange traffic with new and existing business partners, and more.
Telx customers gain access to our interconnection areas by running bulk cable (cross connect) from their equipment (i.e. rack, cabinet or cage) into the interconnection Centers, terminating on panels that they own.
Media Types Available:
- ABAM - 30/50 Pair
- COAX - 6/12 Rack
- Cat 5 - 25/50 Pair
- Fiber - Single/Multi-Mode; 12 Strand and up
