Outdated a little bit gives you a rough idea

from here in the UK, it looks like..

Xtra = Global Gateway
Orcon = AsiaNetCom
WXC/Xnet = AsiaNetCom
Ihug = UUNET/MCI
TelstraClear = UUNet/MCI

I know Compass is AsiaNetCom now. Not sure whether they dropped TCL.

Not sure on backups, I'd assume it'd be a mix of UUNet/MCI and ANC I guess

So AsiaNetCom actually leases southern cross fibre space outta NZ?

word is several of these providers have told customers they have no more bandwidth to sell.

Which haaaas to be utter bullshit, you can get 10gbit a fibre and they have thousands of fibres

i wouldn't go as far as to say "thousands" at all.

Southern Cross is 860Gbps. It's entirely possible that some providers have no more to sell.....until endpoint upgrades are completed.

Dude, there's no way in hell NZ is maxing even close to 860Gbps.

So an NBR article about the PIPE/Kordia cable today said Southern Cross was 380Gb/s, going to 860Gb/s by the end of the year. And that the PIPE/Kordia one would give us another 640Gb/s to Australia.

Just talked to Scott, Orcon have bought more international and should see that increase again in 2 weeks time
