Internet Exchange of Puerto Rico


The Internet Exchange of Puerto Rico aka Puerto Rico Internet Exchange is an internet exchange point situated in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was established on November 22, 2005 by Mehmet Akcin and Dr. Oscar Moreno.
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.
The exchange point stopped operating in 2011.
