i3D.net upgrades AMS-IX connection to 20 gigabit

Interactive 3D (i3D.net) upgraded the AMS-IX connection to 20 gigabit/second. To support the increased traffic we have also added additional 10 gigabit connections between our datacenter SmartDC in Rotterdam, to Amsterdam, to Frankfurt and to London.
Together with our LINX and DE-CIX connections, i3D.net is connected to the largest internet exchanges in the world. i3D uses these connections to add more reliable, direct and low latency connections to major cable, DSL and dialup ISPs and content providers.

Level3 and Global Crossing upgrades
i3D.net also upgraded the connections to Level3 and Global Crossing to 2x 60 gigabit. Our datacenter SmartDC is connected to the Level3 and Global Crossing backbones providing direct connections to Amsterdam, Paris, London and Brussels.
