Increase bandwith on a connection
We currently have a copper bandwidth connection at the data center (in a cabient) and are looking to increase the available bandwidth. Could you assist with the steps invovled in ordering? From reading past forums does it involve ordering a new connection? Thanks for your expertise.Equinix DC – moving from copper to fiber + IP address ordering headaches
i everyone, We’re at an Equinix datacenter and moving from copper to fiber. And ordering some new IP addresses. Couple of things tripping me up: Ordering fiber vs copper cross connects through the portal isn’t super clear. Help desk isn't able to help Has anyone done a copper → fiber migration at Equinix recently? How did you order it (portal, ticket, account manager)? CheersThe Data Center is Evolving - Are You?
Times moves fast...don't they? As the line between public and private cloud continues to blur, we're seeing the very definition of "data center" evolve right alongside it. Colocation, edge, interconnection - these aren't just technologies anymore. They're becoming foundational building blocks in how hybrid cloud actually operates today. We used to think of hybrid as static: pair a hyperscaler with some on-prem gear and bada-bing, bada-boom, call it a day...right? Wrong. That model no longer cuts it. Now, we're watching new hybrid patterns emerge that are more agile, distributed, and value-driven. Let's face it, it's no longer about where the workloads are - it's about how infrastructure adapts to optimize performance, cost, and connectivity in real-time. What are you seeing in your markets? Are you rethinking their hybrid strategies through the lens of colocation and interconnection? Are edge facilities shifting the center of gravity? Would love to hear your take - what are your thoughts?Understanding Sustainable Energy in the Digital Age
