Like our colleagues at DE-CIX, we at FreiȻIX offer direct access to the most relevant, up-to-date, bleeding edge technologies in terms of LAN, MAN and WAN connectivity.
In contrast to DE-CIX’ efforts, we do non-commercial connectivity only (hence the slashed C for commercial in our name). No money, no SLAs, only free flow of data – and fun!
We’re open to a broad range of networking technologies - we trust in building a network of networks, an inter-net, not a samesameeverywherenet.
Connect your line to our backbone and peer freely with all attached nets, using either …
