Peering Provider Service

Set up your Internet Exchange with Chorus

Overview

Chorus has New Zealand’s largest fibre network with over 1 million broadband connections. By using our Peering Provider Service, you get direct access to all those eyeballs from one place.

Chorus’ Peering Provider Service gives you a diverse connection to the Chorus network at selected sites. This allows you to expand your internet exchange fabric to reach more customers and offer a more direct path.

Ports can be 10Ge or 100Ge depending on Chorus availability and your requirements. RSPs connect via their existing UFB Handovers.

Effectively the Chorus Network appears as a single switch on your IX fabric which is managed by Chorus. Your members or customers partake in the IX exchange fabric whether their UFB handover is in Auckland or Invercargill.
