The Internet Exchange of Puerto Rico (IXPR, originally PRIX) was an internet exchange point situated in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was established on November 22, 2005 by the Gauss Research Laboratory of the University of Puerto Rico. Packet Clearing House (PCH) and Dell donated the equipment. Bill Woodcock from PCH served as technical advisor.
IXPR was the first internet exchange point set in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean. Centennial de Puerto Rico, ULTRACOM, Caribe.Net, and the University of Puerto Rico were the first nodes to exchange data through the point. IXPR used a Cisco gigabit Ethernet switch.
As of 2011, IXPR is no longer operating as an Internet Exchange Point.
Famous quotes containing the word exchange:
“... the subjective viewpoint is the only one to use regarding a library. Your true library is a collection of the books you want. You may have deplorably poor taste or bad judgment. Never mind. Correct those traits before you exchange your books.”
—Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
