Connectivity is at the heart
of everything we do.
With our long-standing heritage as a business facing Telco, our deeply interconnected, carrier neutral Data Centres, network integration with ICON (government) and AARnet (education) and over 200 security cleared engineers, we deliver end-to-end solutions with the technologies and partners you know and trust.

Connect to the Cloud.
-
Cloud Services Gateway.
Integrate your colocation, dedicated servers, private clouds and public clouds. Our Cloud Services Gateway provides secure, agile and low-latency connectivity between your LAUNCHTM environment (Macquarie Cloud Service’s private cloud) or colocated hosting environment to any of the public clouds.
Cloud Services Gateway can also be used to provide Layer 2 or Layer 3 connectivity between your colocated hosting environment and over 700 3rd party data centres around the world.
-
Google Cloud Interconnect Partner.
With Cloud Services Gateway for Google Cloud Partner Interconnect, your office, Collocated services, and LAUNCHTM Hybrid and Private cloud services can all be connected directly to Google Cloud for:
- Increased security – your link is your own, and part of your wider defence-in-depth framework
- Lower latency – with a direct, known, short path straight from your service to Google
Heavily reduced data egress charges. Interconnect enables you to transfer large pools of data between networks, which can be more cost-effective than VPN tunnels or purchasing additional bandwidth over the public Internet
Our Cloud Services Gateway is available from all Intellicentres as well as our Perth and Melbourne PoPs.
Proudly Carrier Neutral.
We recognize the critical role of connectivity in driving your business's success.
Our unwavering commitment to being carrier-neutral ensures that our customers have access to a vast network of over 700 data centres and network providers. This empowers them with unparalleled flexibility and the freedom to choose the options that perfectly align with their unique requirements.

Intellicentre Interconnects.
DCCC (Data Centre Cross Connect) provides customers with the ability to establish a secure, high-speed layer 3 IP network link between their hosting environments in different Intellicentres.
Speeds from 100Mbps to 1Gpbs are offered, with Dual Access High Availability offered as an option to customers requiring link redundancy.
Layer 3 DCCC is available in all our Intellicentres.
Data Centre Interconnect.
DCI (Data Centre Interconnect) provides customers with the ability to establish a secure, high-speed layer 2 Ethernet link between their hosting environments.
Speeds from 1Gbps to 10Gbps are offered, with Dual Access High Availability offered as an option to customers requiring link redundancy.
Layer 2 DCI is available in our IC1, IC2 and IC3 data centres.

We're flexible fibre providers.
-
Dark Fibre.
We’re flexible with fibre providers.
Dark fibre provides customers with the ability to establish secure, private and highly available point-to-point links between their data centre and any other location that is covered by the dark fibre network.
We are carrier agnostic; we will happily work with your current provider to haul in dark fibre and terminate this in your racks. Chances are they’re already connected with us – all the major telco’s have a presence in our Intellicentres.
We’re a Fibreconx connected data centre.
Our Macquarie Park Data Centre Campus is connected to the Fibreconx dark fibre ring network, connecting data centres across Sydney with pre-provisioned capacity and diverse paths between data centres.
-
Cross Connects.
Cross Connect cabling enables tenants to establish duplex circuits between racks located over facility managed structured cabling. Cross Connects are ordered by customers for connection to carrier services and may also be ordered for connections between customers and between carriers.
Cable types supported include:
- Duplex (2 Core) Single Mode Fibre (SMOF OS2)
- Duplex (2 Core) Multi-mode Fibre (MMOF OM4)
Cross connects can be established between racks within the same Intellicentre, or seamlessly between Intellicentres within the same campus (e.g. between IC2 and IC3).
Services requiring Federal Government security classification are installed in secure dedicated conduits compliant with the Federal Government’s ACSC cabling requirements.
-
Internet.
The Macquarie Hosting Internet Service provides a high performance, dedicated Internet connection tailored for business, content providers and government customers, with choices of port and access bandwidths up to 10Gbps.
The Internet Service is delivered on a congestion-free, carrier-grade backbone with multiple redundant, high-speed interconnections to Australian Tier 1 content providers and the World Wide Web. Our network backbone uses 10Gbps Ethernet transmission infrastructure that is route-optimised and load-balanced to maximise throughput and performance of your business internet traffic.
Included as standard is DDOS protection. This means volumetric DDOS attacks won’t consume your internet port bandwidth.
