I know this sounds strange, but why not ask Vocus to deliver you diversity
themselves?

Possibly they can also provide private backhaul between the two points
where they hand off to you, and, heck, maybe even protect it if you ask
nicely enough.

I use them for Transit as well as Intercap and other private local
connectivity and haven't seen a blip in two years on Intercap or Transit.

May as well get your carrier to do all the hard work in protecting
connectivity to your pops - that's what you pay them for.

Sean.

Hi All,

Aware that this question is asked all the time.

Looking for recommendations for a "diverse" path to Vocus for 500Mbps -
1Gbps (95th/burstable) with handoff in GS, Eqx and NextDC M1; preferably
with the ability to deliver on a 10G port "in the future" should our needs
require.

Had been considering AAPT but had some interesting feedback around product
support that is making me think twice. Would be interested in off-list
thoughts of other reasonable options. :)

Thanks,
Andrew
