About NCL-IX

NCL-IX was built and funded by the Stellium campus in Newcastle, which is where subsea and UK national networks land in Tyne and Wear, and the operator states it will stay neutral and not-for-profit until the exchange sustains itself and its networks want to move it into a member-owned company. The first two 1GE or 10GE ports are free until January 2028, with charges for a third port, for 100GE and for long-reach optics quoted on request. 8 networks connect. Two route servers on AS60710 drop RPKI-invalid routes and fall back to registry filtering where validity is unknown.
