Oh and Megaport is available not only in Equinix Sy1/2/3 but also in<br>
Global Switch (now) and NEXTDC S1 (when it's launched later next month).<br>
No cross connect fee during the Test Drive too in Equinix, Global Switch<br>
MMMR's and NEXTDC S1.<br>
<br>
Full Megaport 10G (includes Mega-IX + access to the Megaport VCX service)<br>
$750/month<br>
Megaport Mega-IX only service 10G $500/month<br>
<br>
But as already stated the "test drive" service is free for the first 6<br>
months including cross connect including VCX's (Virtual Cross Connects).<br>
<br>
Over 50 people signed up and around 75 ports coming online in the next 60<br>
days as some of the fibre reaches a few more DC's.<br>
<br>
Watch this space <a href="http://www.megaport.com/blog" target="_blank">www.megaport.com/blog</a> or;<br>
sign up for Test Drive here <a href="http://www.megaport.com/megaporttestdrive.html" target="_blank">http://www.megaport.com/<u></u>megaporttestdrive.html</a><br>

Cheers<br>

You've also got Megaport in SY1 & SY3, free for 6 months then $500/m for<br>
IX only @ 10Gb.<br>

We're in talks with Equinix about a new rack in SY3, and they're<br>
saying 100meg IX cost is $1000 plus cross-connect. He mentioned that<br>
some website had said it $250 and that wasn't accurate.<br>

Wow... $1000+XC for 100Mb makes even PIPE look cheap. I can't say for<br>
certain, but I'm fairly confident that if you push, you can get it from<br>
Equinix cheaper than that.<br>
<br>
If you want to use NSW-IX and don't want to faff around with a link to<br>
SY1,<br>
ping me off-list -- we've got dark fibre between SY3 and GS, and are<br>
looking<br>
at a hookup to NSW-IX. I'm sure something can be worked out.<br>
