Any2 Exchange - Internet Exchange and Peering Utility

One Wilshire, in the heart of downtown Los Angeles, is among the world's primary telecommunication and network interconnection points. Given the density of network providers and network service providers present within One Wilshire, the building is a very logical location to host a neutral location for tenants to interconnect their IP networks. After numerous conferences and discussions with valued tenants within One Wilshire and Market Post Tower, CRG West released our neutral packet Internet exchange (Any² Exchange) in 2005 as a utility built within CRG West meet-me-rooms and data centers.

Since 2005 the Any² Exchange has grown to more than 150 participating members, adding features and cutting edge hardware as the exchange continues to develop its critical role in the US and global Internet peering and Internet exchange point infrastructure.

The Any² Exchange is a neutral, privately-owned packet and Internet exchange point, providing a high performance Internet peering facility for participants. Any² Exchange membership is open to all networks, either within a CRG West facility or outside of our facilities, which can benefit from peering their IP or VoIP traffic, IPv6, as well as content delivery, disaster recovery, and gaming traffic. Our objective is to provide high-speed, reliable and resilient Internet peering, and Internet exchange point facilities at the lowest possible cost to members. Initially installed at One Wilshire (Los Angeles) and Market Post Tower (San Jose), the Any² Exchange allows participants to route IP traffic efficiently; providing faster, more reliable and lower-latency internet or VoIP access to their customers. Any² has now expanded to additional CRG West data center facilities, including those in Miami, Washington DC, Boston, Chicago, Reston, and New York.

Take a look around the Any² Exchange website and consider how we may be able to help your Internet-connected business reduce operational costs, improve network performance, assist with your IPv6 strategy, and add another layer of network resilience. We strive to live by our motto "A Better Internet by Design...," offering members not only a world class exchange platform, but also a forum to discuss new ideas, visions, and planning for a better Internet.
