Equinix Fabric Network

Equinix Fabric Network Map gives you the ability to:

• View Equinix Fabric global locations in either a 2D flat or 3D spherical view.
• View service providers and their on-ramps in all Equinix Fabric locations.
• Visualize how Equinix Fabric locations are connected globally to form the Equinix Fabric Global Network.
• Visualize routing between any two selected locations and get an indicative value of latency (round trip) between those locations.

Global View

When you access the Equinix Fabric Network Map, you are initially presented with a flat view of all Equinix locations.

Regional View

Select an individual region to view only the locations and the Equinix Fabric network in that specific region.

Map Settings

Use the Map Settings feature to toggle from a 2D flat view to a 3D spherical view, and drag and rotate the spherical view.

Service Providers

Use the Service Providers map feature to view the availability of any or all service providers and their onramps in each Equinix Fabric location.

Routes

Use the Routes map feature to visualize the routing on a hop-by-hop basis between any two selected locations, along with an indicative value of latency (round trip time) between those locations.

By default, the view is representative of normal operational conditions as well as a value of average (preceding month) round trip time. You can toggle to a real-time view to observe current network behavior.
