Description
Hurricane Electric operates its own global IPv4 and IPv6 network; HE.NET is the largest IPv4 backbone in the world, as well as the largest IPv6 global network (as measured by number of networks connected). Hurricane Electric is also present at the most Internet Exchange Points (IXPs).
Within its global IP Transit network, Hurricane Electric is connected to more than 100 major exchange points, and exchanges traffic directly with more than 4,000 different networks.
Employing a resilient fiber-optic topology, Hurricane Electric has no less than four redundant paths crossing North America, two separate paths between the U.S. and Europe, and rings in Europe and Asia.
Hurricane Electric offers IPv4 and IPv6 transit solutions over the same connection. Connection speeds available include 100GE (100 gigabits/second), 10GE, and gigabit ethernet.
In addition to its vast global network, Hurricane Electric owns and operates two carrier-neutral colocation data centers in Fremont, California.
CTG3 is the TSX master agent for Hurricane Electric.
Avant is the Alliance master agent for Hurricane Electric.
Notes from the Field
Fast Turn-Up Times
I've just done a quick analysis of all Hurricane Electric orders placed through channel partners (and my team), over the past 2+ years:
- 31% of orders turned up in less than 10 days
- 56% of orders turned up in less than 20 days
- 72% of orders turned up in one month or less
This is the time from the submittal of a signed order, to the date when service was fully operational.
