As with any AWS Direct Connect location, this locations conform to the standard resiliency model that includes two customer facing devices per location that allow customers to establish locally resilient and redundant phyiscal connectivity to the Amazon backbone network. Please take a look at our resiliency recommendations when planning your connectivity. Using AWS Direct Connect, you can establish private connectivity between AWS and your datacenter, office, or colocation environment, which in many cases can reduce your network costs, increase bandwidth throughput, and provide a more consistent network experience than Internet-based connections.
Please see the AWS Direct Connect website for details on our locations, their associated home regions, the support of logical redundancy and pricing. All AWS Direct Connect locations give access to all global AWS Regions (except China) as shown in our region table. Customers can get dedicated 1Gbps or 10Gbps connections or work with a partner for connections with speeds less than 1Gbps.
