Blacknight Network

Blacknight is one of the few hosting providers to have designed & built its own network, specifically to meet the needs of our customers.

Core:

Our network uses high-speed Cisco routers with multiple 100Gbps links, allowing us to handle big traffic spikes without impacting other customers. We use advanced routing (IS-IS, BGP, MPLS) to ensure the highest level of reliability.

IPv6 Ready:

Our network supports both IPv4 and IPv6 (old and new internet systems), so customers can be covered either way using either one or both.

Peering:

Blacknight connects directly to major European internet exchanges AMS-IX (Amsterdam), DE-CIX (Frankfurt), INEX (Dublin), and LINX (London) as well as top content providers like Netflix, Google, Facebook, and Akamai. This ensures your data travels quickly and efficiently across the internet.

RIPE:

We're part of RIPE NCC (the group that manages IP addresses and internet resources in Europe). We also stay active in the broader internet and ISP community to help improve how the internet works.

Optimised Routing:

Our smart routing system makes sure your data takes the fastest, most reliable path. It automatically avoids problems like delays or dropped packets, and our team keeps a close eye on everything to maintain top performance.
