I'd say if you have to ask if you're wholesale/channel partner, then you probably aren't one ;)

Number 1 is open to interpretation - since anyone who joined up to Megaport can essentially offer services over Megaport - which essentially means everyone is a partner :)

>>>Using Vocus as an example... Megaport is in the Vocus DC, or a place where Vocus provides handoff.  You order a MegaDirect service (in 1Gb or 10Gb) to go from the Vocus handoff switch port, directly physically cabled to the Megaport switch, which you can then VxC back to you.
>>> 
>>>I am about to use this to get to one of the suppliers for a new ISP I am building which are slow to get onto Megaport.  The costs for the 1Gb ports are only $200 (12mths) or $250 (6mths) instead of the $500 for the 10Gb ports.

>>>This can be essentially used to connect anyone to your network by using Megaport.  You will most likely see some tail providers, like FirstPath and others who will offer tails from an office building, straight into Megaport using MegaDirect.
>>> 
>>>So, if someone isn't on Megaport, or just not yet... It doesn't really matter anymore as long as Megaport is in the DC itself...
