The DET-IX switching fabric consists of multiple high capacity switches interconnected together. DET-IX members connect via 1, 10, 25 or a 100G ports. Members can pass traffic directly between one another, rather than purchasing through a third party provider. Further, the traffic stays local via the IXP as opposed to being routed in another major city.[3]
