Hurricane Electric Brings Global Network To Saskatoon
New point of presence will provide global Internet transit to Saskatoon’s advanced technology sector.
Hurricane Electric has further extended its global network with the opening of a new Point of Presence (PoP) at Innovation Place, located at the University of Saskatchewan, 110 Maintenance Rd, Suite C2, Saskatoon, SK, S7N 4L5.
By establishing this new PoP at the University of Saskatchewan, the tenants of Innovation Place now have access to one of the world’s most robust global networks. These companies will be able to satisfy their high-speed IP transit needs as well as realize increased network capacity through 100GE (100 Gigabit Ethernet), 10GE (10 Gigabit Ethernet) and GigE (1 Gigabit Ethernet) ports. Tenants also now have the opportunity to exchange IP traffic, or “peer,” with Hurricane Electric’s expansive global network, which is Jumbo Frame (9000 byte MTU) compatible. Additionally, those choosing Hurricane Electric’s global IP transit will have access to Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), helping them identify the shortest path for reduced network hops and faster traffic delivery.
