Why Mexico City

Most Mexican traffic still hairpins through Dallas or Miami before coming home. MEX1 removes that detour: content served from the capital reaches Mexican networks directly, and it places a Spanish-language origin inside the country rather than north of the border.

How Mexico City is connected

We peer at IXSY and inside Equinix's Mexican footprint, which between them reach the domestic ISPs that matter. Mexico City is the demand centre rather than a landing point — cables come ashore on the Gulf and Pacific coasts and are backhauled inland — so the value here is local interconnection, not cable adjacency. Paths north into Texas are clean and well established.

What MEX1 is good at

  • 01Mexican and Central American users
  • 02Edge caching for domestic ISPs
  • 03Latin America market entry
Hosting under Mexico lawMexican data protection law is consent-driven and binds whoever controls the data, not the facility holding it. Nothing obliges customer traffic to stay inside the country, and the retention rules that do exist apply to telecoms licensees rather than hosting providers.

FAQ

Questions about Mexico City

It depends what you are serving. MEX1 peers at IXSY, Equinix MX, which sets how directly it reaches the networks your users sit on. The latency table above is measured, not modelled: read the row for the hub closest to your audience and decide from that rather than from the map.
