    I'm curious how the datacenters feel about potentially losing all
    this cross connect revenue.  It has to be a pretty fair chunk of
    their profit.  We all know that it doesn't cost $225/month (>$8k
    over 3 years) for 50m of fibre to sit in a tray, but we know that
    that 10Kva of redundant, protected power and cooling is worth every
    cent we pay for it.<br>
    <br>
    I think Macca raised a reasonable point... everything on 1 physical
    port is crazy.  But everyone else has made the obvious conclusion
    that Megaport[S] open up some fantastic options for us all.    How
    exactly does the service work if we take 2 ports? Are they
    aggregated or active/standby ? Is it the same cost to take up the
    2nd port?<br>

        <div>From what one of the guys at MP told me, intra-dc will be
          $100/mth... which when you look at places like Equinix which
          does Fibre at $290/mth - this will essentially third that for
          permanent connections.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>I'm not sure of the final numbers, but Bevan mentioned
          $20/day (as opposed to $200/mth) if you only want a short term
          connection up and running.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>The trick here will be for Megaport to automate this so
          smoothly that VxC's are brought online VERY quickly.. perhaps
          even have non-active pre-provisioned ones (with VLAN's, etc)
          between two points, ready to come up at a moments notice.</div>

        <div>The datacentres these Cross-Connect fee savings will help
