MBIX has added a peering switch on the 8th floor of 355 Portage.  This switch resides within LES.NET colocation, and Fastnet can also provide optical cross-connects to the MBIX switch.

This expansion is a Cisco Nexus 3064-X switch, with 4x10Gbps links to the 294 Portage peering switch.

We’ve also added a 100G  link between 294 Portage and 167 Lombard, running a port-channel with 200 Gbps capacity.
