Connectivity
9 carriers and an internet exchange, one cross-connect away
Colo Solutions is carrier-neutral and sits in the building that became Orlando's telecom hotel. Carriers consolidated into the space over decades, so the cross-connect options here are a product of the address rather than a procurement exercise.
Carriers in the building
9 networks have equipment on site. Each is reached by a cross-connect — a direct cable inside the building, provisioned by Colo Solutions.

If you already have a carrier relationship, it very likely terminates in this building already. Logos are trademarks of their respective owners and indicate on-site presence only.
An internet exchange in the building
DACS-IX South, the Southeast region of the DACS-IX peering fabric, has a point of presence at Colo Solutions. Networks connected to it exchange traffic with each other directly instead of paying a transit provider to carry it — traffic between two Orlando networks stays in Orlando rather than routing via Atlanta or Miami.

Ask about a specific carrier
If the carrier you need is not listed, call — the building's history means the answer is often still yes.
