National Internet Exchange of India (NIXI)(IT)

The National Internet Exchange of India is the neutral meeting point of the ISPs in India.

Its main purpose is to facilitate exchange of domestic Internet traffic between the peering ISP members.

This enables more efficient use of international bandwidth, saving foreign exchange.

It also improves the Quality of Services for the customers of member ISPs, by avoiding multiple international hops and thus reducing latency.
