Use Cases
- Regional ISPs and MSPs consolidating upstreams
- Buy one blended feed on AS35661 instead of running five upstream contracts, five BGP sessions and five escalation paths. Full table and traffic-engineering communities included.
- CDN and streaming platforms serving global audiences
- Per-prefix path selection across five Tier 1 carriers keeps sustained multi-gigabit egress on the shortest route to each destination, with 10 to 100 Gbps ports and DDoS filtering.
- Financial and AI platforms moving data across continents
- Consistent transatlantic latency and automatic failover between carriers hold trading feeds and dataset sync stable, without inheriting a single provider outage.
SLA and support
Every port carries a 99.9% uptime SLA with financial credits on breach, backed by 24/7 NOC monitoring and proactive alerting. Sessions run from distinct routers on diverse paths, so a single upstream failure reconverges as a BGP event, not a maintenance ticket. One support contact, engineers only.

Frequently Asked Questions
Transit pricing depends on your committed bandwidth, burst profile, port speed and contract term (initial term, then automatic 12-month renewals). We operate AS35661 and blend five Tier 1 upstreams ourselves, so there is no resale margin. Send your traffic profile and we return a firm quote within one business day.
Blended transit mixes five Tier 1 carriers behind one port and one BGP session. We steer per prefix with local-pref and MED, so your traffic takes the strongest route for each destination and fails over automatically between carriers, instead of inheriting a single provider's weak routes and outages.
No. We route static blocks for you without BGP if you prefer. With your own ASN you gain multihoming and provider independence, and our RIPE registration service handles the process. Either way the session terminates on AS35661.
On-net ports in Paris and Lille deliver in 24 to 72 hours. You get full IPv4/IPv6 tables or a default route, standard BGP communities for prefix scoping, per-upstream prepending and blackholing (RTBH), with MD5 or TCP-AO and max-prefix policies agreed at provisioning.
