Infrastructure

The Kansas City Internet eXchange is built on Brocade and Extreme Networks Switches.  Each node is capable of 128Gbits of non-blocking forwarding and can be configured with various port configurations on demand.

KCIX currently operates 4 nodes in the Kansas City Metropolitan Area with more being planned. Handoffs can be made with either copper or fiber using either Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet.  See our Services page for more details.
