Order a Cross Connect
Prerequisites
When you order a cross connect, you must provide an LOA/CFA authorizing PacketFabric access to your equipment.
If you are unfamiliar with authoring an LOA, we have provided a template.
Under the channel facility assignment, you can add, remove, or rename fields as necessary. These fields serve as instructions for the data center technicians on where to locate your equipment and install the cross connect.
