It's the highest category of Internet network: networks so large they reach any destination in the world through peering without paying transit to anyone. Connecting our datacenter to a Tier-1 network means fewer intermediaries between your server and your users, and therefore more speed and stability.
Connected through a global Tier-1 network
Our Miami rack connects through one of the five largest networks in the world: owned fiber in 58 countries, more than 7,500 interconnected networks and free peering with virtually all of the Internet.
Meet the NetworkAt the Americas' exchange point
Miami is one of the largest traffic hubs on the planet and the main bridge between North America, Latin America and Europe. Being here means very low latency to all of Latin America and good latency to Europe.
Why MiamiDDoS mitigated and 99.9% delivery
Network engineered for 100% availability, with 99.9% packet delivery, DDoS attack mitigation and 1G, 10G, 100G and up to 400G ports. Your service, always online.

A Tier-1 network under your project
A server is only as good as the network that connects it. Our Miami rack runs on a Tier-1 network: the highest category on the Internet, networks so large they reach any destination in the world through peering without paying transit to anyone. Fewer intermediaries, fewer hops, more speed for your users.

The Hub of the Americas
Miami: the bridge between three continents
South Florida concentrates one of the largest volumes of Internet traffic in the world. It's the point where most Latin American networks interconnect with each other and reach the submarine cables that cross the Caribbean and the Atlantic. Being physically here is what gives us our biggest latency advantage.

The reach of our network
From our Miami hub we reach Latin America and Europe with low latency, and add reach in Asia-Pacific through our partners. Each point is a connected region.

The location of each service is assigned based on its configuration: our core is in Miami (Cogent datacenter, Boca Raton) and we complement it with top-tier partner datacenters in North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia-Pacific. See where your data lives on our Datacenter page →
Have a
Question?
What is a Tier-1 network?
Why does Miami improve latency to Latin America?
Because South Florida is the point where most Latin American networks interconnect and where the submarine cables that cross the Caribbean land. Being physically there means your traffic enters those routes on the first hop, instead of going around through another region of the United States.
What latency will I get from my country?
The network guarantees an average of ≤ 45 ms within North America and ≤ 35 ms within Europe. The actual time to your country also depends on your local Internet provider. If you want a specific figure, write to us and we'll run a latency test to your location.
Are you protected against DDoS attacks?
Yes. We have denial-of-service (DDoS) attack mitigation, with carrier-scale capacity on our partner network. The goal is to keep your service online even under attack.
What port speeds do you offer?
The datacenter has 1G, 10G, 100G and up to 400 GbE ports. Our infrastructure plans include 1 Gbps links, upgradeable up to 10 Gbps, with unlimited transfer. For larger needs, we provide a custom quote.
Is data transfer unlimited?
On our infrastructure plans (VPS, dedicated servers and colocation) the link is unmetered. We confirm the exact terms of each plan before you order.
